Women and girls are scared. They always have been. It’s as sad and simple as it surely doesn’t have to be this way. Virginia Méndez Mesón and Róisín Whyte live on the same street in East Belfast. Through their work and art, they have been considering their own experiences as girls and women and they want to start a conversation with you.
This is an open invitation to join us. Over the course of an hour or so, there will be music and talking. Much of the event will explore how gender is expressed and what it means for how boys/girls men/women relate to each other. Together we can consider the ways we can be kinder and fairer to ourselves and others in thought, word and deed.
This event is open to everyone because this affects everyone, and always will. Come young people, tell us your stories. Come teachers and parents, share your experience, empathy, humour. Come humans. Because we need to talk. About all of it. Virginia is the CEO of The Feminist Shop, activist, public speaker and author who’s first adult publication; Childhood Unlimited: Parenting Beyond the Gender Bias was released in April 2022. Róisín Whyte is a musician and a woman. She is weary, but remains hopeful and determined that change will come.
