#63 FiLiA meets: Kathleen Barry

"Consciousness-raising is enough to spark movements any place you do it. It’s the foundation of everything."

Kathleen Barry is a feminist, sociologist and internationally recognised human rights activist. She is a Professor Emerita and the author of five books, including the landmark work Female Sexual Slavery published in 1979. Kathleen has been a close friend of FiLiA for a number of years and we are honoured to be speaking with her on this podcast. She joined a FiLiA weekend by Skype to handhold the team through our first Consciousness Raising session. Her book Susan B Anthony: A Biography of a Singular Feminist was the inspiration for the decision to take FiLiA out of London and to a different city every year - one of the best decisions we made.
