Join us for a thought-provoking hour as Virginia Mendez candidly explores her personal evolution from initial rejection to wholeheartedly embracing feminism. In 'Why I Used to Hate Feminism and What Changed,' Virginia will weave together her own story with the historical tapestry of feminism. From the suffragette era to the subsequent waves of feminism, the discussion will contextualise the movement's goals and achievements, as well as the resistance it has faced under the false narrative that 'this time we are going too far’.
Anecdotes, data and a fair dose of anger and hope. Whether you're a seasoned advocate or someone curious about the potential of reconsideration, a sceptic, or an ally, this talk promises to provoke thought, challenge assumptions, and inspire dialogue on the path towards a more inclusive and equitable society.
