Bernadette Hyland
will be giving talk about her book Northern ReSisters : conversations
with radical women on Wednesday 20th January, 2pm, at Tameside
History Club. The event is free.
In the book Bernadette speaks to nine women from the north west who have been active in radical movements over the pasty forty years,
including trade unionism, Women’s Liberation, radical bookselling,
anti-racism, the peace movement, Ireland and Palestine. Bernadette says:
“In this book I ask the question; what does it mean to be an activist; how does
it affect your life and how do people keep going at a time of increasing
attacks on all the aspects of this society that has made it a decent place for
people to live?
