Episode 3: Radical roots of International Women's Day
Update: 2020-03-06
Description
On 8 March we celebrate International Women's Day. What started off as a radical socialist movement is now an international day of celebration. Yet, at a time when women are incarcerated and kept in inhumane conditions at Yarl’s Wood, and female garment workers in poorer countries are lacking basic workers’ rights, is this really enough? International Women's Day started out as a day of campaigning – not celebrations – and we must not overlook its radical roots. Because lots of the same issues women were battling 100 years ago, we’re still facing today. Join our hosts Radhika Patel and Malise Rosbech to find out more about the history of International Women's Day.
