Two deeply disturbing cases in France have reignited national debate about how the justice system handles sexual violence. In December last year, Dominique Pelicot was found guilty of repeatedly drugging and raping his wife while she was unconscious and inviting other men to do the same. This week, Joël Le Scouarnec, a retired surgeon, was sentenced to a maximum of 20 years in jail for sexually abusing almost 300 people, mostly children. His victims have spoken out against this sentence and lawyers have called for a change in the law. Jessica Creighton is joined by Blandine Deverlanges, a feminist activist and the Founder of Les Amazones d'Avignon, and BBC correspondent Hugh Schofield to discuss the situation. Three-time Oscar nominee Carey Mulligan, known for roles in films such as Maestro, Promising Young Woman and Suffragette, returns to our cinema screens in the comedy drama The Ballad of Wallis Island. She talks about playing ex-folk singer Nell, working on a film set with a young baby, and how she feels about turning 40. The Secret Intelligence Service, known as MI6, is about to appoint a new chief and it's looking very likely that it will be a woman for the first time in the organisation's 115-year history. Former BBC defence correspondent Gordon Corera and spy novelist Ava Glass tell Jessica who's in the running and how significant it is that this organisation could be run by a woman.A new blood test which will help develop personalised cancer treatment is going to be rolled out across the NHS. The technique, known as a 'liquid biopsy' will be offered as a standard for lung cancer patients, and the NHS is now planning on expanding this testing to advanced breast cancer patients. Jessica is joined by Peter Johnson, national clinical director for cancer at NHS England, to discuss how this works and the impact it could have.Earlier this week, goalkeeper Mary Earps, one of England's most high profile footballers, announced her retirement from the international game. Her decision comes just five weeks before the Lionesses go to the European Championships to defend their title. Joining Jessica to discuss her decision is football writer for the Guardian Suzy Wrack, and sports lecturer at the University of Worcester and professional goalkeeping coach, Dr Julia West.

How could the SAVE Act send us tumbling back to the Suffragette era? This bill that's pending review in the Senate could jeopardize voting access for up to 69 million American women. It would require all voters to prove citizenship with a passport or birth certificate in order to register to vote, which is a big problem for anyone who's name has changed since birth—including through marriage—as well as anyone who doesn't have easy access to such documentation.In this episode, I take a closer look at whether the concern from women and voter rights activists across the country is legitimate or overblown. Spoiler alert: it's worse than I imagined.Make sure you're in the know about this major threat, including:The specifics of the SAVE Act;The challenges that make this legislation so alarming to women's and voter rights activists;How you can make your voice heard to prevent this bill from becoming law.Related Links:5 Calls, “Oppose the SAVE Act (H.R. 22) - A Voter Suppression Bill - Passed House” - https://5calls.org/issue/save-act-voter-suppression/Congress.Gov, Find Your Members - https://www.congress.gov/members/find-your-memberRead the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act - https://www.congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/house-bill/22Politico, “The House Passed the SAVE Act.

En avril 1945, il y a 80 ans, les Françaises votaient pour la toute première fois. A cette occasion, Virginie Girod vous propose de redécouvrir l'histoire de celles qui, réclamant le droit d'accéder aux urnes, sont entrées dans notre imaginaire collectif sous le nom de "suffragettes".

Screenwriter and playwright Abi Morgan has worked across a diverse array of themes and genres for more than 25 years. She wrote the television series The Split, a domestic drama involving divorce lawyers, and created the psychological Netflix series Eric. Her other television credits include Sex Traffic, for which she won a BAFTA for Best Drama serial in 2005, and The Hour, the television news drama which earned her an Emmy award in 2012. Her film credits include The Iron Lady, which starred Meryl Streep as Margaret Thatcher; historical drama Suffragette; and Shame, co-written with the director Steve McQueen. Her recent book This Is Not A Pity Memoir recounts her husband's recovery after serious illness, and her own treatment for cancer. Abi Morgan tells John Wilson about her childhood in a theatrical family; her father was the director Gareth Morgan and her mother is the actor Pat England. She chooses the author, screenwriter and director Nora Ephron as an important influence, and particularly the film Heartburn which Ephron adapted from her semi-autobiographical divorce novel Heartburn. Abi Morgan also recalls the work of television screenwriter Kay Mellor, whose series Band Of Gold and Playing The Field also influenced her own writing. She describes how seeing an exhibition of the work of artist Cornelia Parker, including her installation Cold Dark Matter: An Exploded View, inspired some of Abi's early theatre work including her plays Splendour and The Mistress Contract.

While the Suffragettes were fighting to win the vote, over in Germany, Rosa Luxemburg was focused on overthrowing the entire system. A committed Marxist revolutionary and a fervent advocate of internationalism, Luxemburg believed that true freedom lay beyond ‘bourgeois democracy'. Her sharp intellect and uncompromising stance made her a formidable force in the politics of early-20th century Europe. Mark Jones speaks to Danny Bird about Luxemburg's extraordinary biography – from her rebellious youth and opposition to the First World War to her brutal execution in 1919.

This week's Carlene episode opened the door to something we just have to talk about: Southern Suffragists (courtesy of Carlene's boyfriend, Eric, giving Julia a book on the topic in episode 20).  We'll talk about the women's suffragist movement generally, unpack the South's role and what happened here, and wrap up by looking at some women (and men!) suffragists who helped make it happen.  Come on y'all, let's get into it!

You can listen to the full 87-minute episode without ads and support our work at https://www.patreon.com/posts/e101-radical-and-120598405In this episode, we speak to Alex Charnley and Michael Richmond about their excellent book, Fractured: Race, Class, Gender and the Hatred of Identity Politics. The book pushes back against the idea of 'identity politics' as a vaguely defined and universal bogeyman for both left and right-wing politics.Instead, they show how 'identity' is not just a ‘subjective' idea in people's heads, but the result of real, material ways the working class is structured according to race, gender, nationality etc by the various divisions of labour, immigration laws, etc. And, as we discuss in the episode, what often gets called ‘identity politics' is actually an attempt to think through how class functions, and is acted upon, in the reality through which it's lived.Listen to the full episode here:E101: Radical Reads – ‘Fractured: Race, Class, Gender and the Hatred of Identity Politics'More information:Buy Fractured: Race, Class, Gender and the Hatred of Identity Politics from an independent bookshop'Aliens at the Border' – a lightly edited version of Chapter Four from Fractured, looking at Jewish immigration to Britain from Eastern Europe in the late nineteenth/early twentieth century'Fascism and the Women's Cause: Gender Critical Feminism, Suffragettes and the Women's KKK' – piece by Alex and Michael looking at the link between contemporary transphobic feminists and the far-right by placing it against reactionary elements within the women's suffrage movement, and trajectories which led some into the Ku Klux Klan and British Union of FascistsListen to an earlier Radical Reads episode with Michael, discussing David Baddiel's hilariously terrible book, Jews Don't CountBooks and merch related to Black history and struggleBooks and merch related to women's history and struggleBooks and merch related to LGBTQ history and struggleWebpage for the episode is available here: https://workingclasshistory.com/blog/e101-radical-reads-fractured-race-class-gender-and-the-hatred-of-identity-politics/AcknowledgementsThanks to our patreon supporters for making this podcast possible.

This episode is being published the day after the U.S. presidential election. Tension, stress, and fears are running high. No matter which candidate wins, nearly half the voting population will be very upset. How do we navigate our relationships during this time? How do we move through the world in a thoughtful way? That's the basis of our conversation today.We focus on the role of consensus in maintaining rights. While aggressive action might be needed to achieve rights–like the Civil War and Suffragettes protests– we argue that consensus is what's needed to maintain them. We discuss how consensus is slowly developed over time through countless conversations and interactions.We give you specific questions you can use to start difficult conversations, including conversations with yourself about your own beliefs. We also discuss how you can get involved in issues you care about and make a difference that way.We hope this episode provides empowerment, hope, and community to our listeners during this stressful, often overwhelming, time.Resources:Start a free trial of CTCmath.com to try the math program that's sure to grab and keep your child's attention.Check out Julie's Instagram post about thinking around the election Listen to our episode with Shannon Watts: #235 Why Moms Make the Best Advocates Check out the Brave Writer Practice Pages Explore the Brave Writer Book ShopSign up for our Text Message Pod Ring to get podcast updates and more!Send us podcast topic ideas by texting us: +1 (833) 947-3684Connect with Julie:Instagram: @juliebravewriterThreads: @juliebravewriterTwitter: @bravewriterFacebook: facebook.com/bravewriterConnect with Melissa:Website: melissawiley.comSubstack: melissawiley.substack.comInstagram: @melissawileybooksTwitter: @melissawileyProduced by NOVA Media

We're back for the 2024-2025 season!  And what better way to begin than to discuss the history of a sisterhood between the Haudenosaunee women and the American suffragists.  Join us as we interview Sally Roesch Wagner, noted feminist pioneer, activist and author as we discuss her book, Sisters In Spirit.The Iroquois, alternatively referred to by the endonym Haudenosaunee, are a confederacy of Native Americans and First Nations peoples in northeast North America.  Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Matilda Joslyn Gage, and Lucretia Mott had formed friendships with Haudenosaunee women that enabled them to see the real possibility of creating a very different structure for their American culture, a matriarchal one, like the one that their Haudenosaunee sisters had experienced for generations. We talk to Sally Roesch Wagner about this amazing story and how she discovered this overlooked pieced of American feminist herstory.Sean Marlon Newcombe and Dawn "Sam" Alden co-host.

For years, the MRM has been told women live under an oppressive patriarchy that denies them any power or influence. What did anti-suffragettes have to say about that? We'll continue to investigate by reading through and responding to Joe C. Miller's report “Never a fight of women against man: What the textbooks don't say about women's suffrage.” Coming up: “More power without the vote”

For the last few weeks, we've been examining the historical conflict between women over voting rights, by reading through and responding to Joe C. Miller's report “Never a fight of women against man: What the textbooks don't say about women's suffrage.” Coming up: An interesting revelation about the meaning and origins of the concept of “low information voters.”

Don Wildman examines a notebook with crucial information about an activist's controversial death, inspects a microphone linked to a tale of wartime treason and gazes upon an iconic sign tied to a battle for a billionaire's estate. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Walk into Dr Helen Pankhurst's home and you'd know straightaway which famous family she's a part of. From suffragette sashes to her purple, white and green colour scheme. Perhaps it's no wonder she's now a celebrated activist herself, winning a CBE for services to gender equality. Matt and Alice sat down with Helen to discuss the effect her family has had on Britain, her take on the climate change protestors of today, and how Labour's new gender-balanced cabinet will change the country.Read about Helen's campaign to deliver a gender equal parliament by 2028: https://centenaryaction.org.uk/Listen to British Scandal on the Wondery App or wherever you get your podcasts.

The Suffragettes need to strike the establishment at its core. They've tried using words. They've even tried violence. Finally, one mild day in June 1913, the group does make headlines.

The Pankhursts' movement has a new name. The Suffragettes. They're reinvigorated, but fresh-faced Prime Minister Asquith is determined to ignore them. So the Suffragettes resort to a shocking new tactic. One that could prove deadly.Do you have a suggestion for a scandal you'd like us to cover?

Nous sommes en octobre 1902, au Royaume-Uni. C'est aux éditions Frederick Warne & Co., maison fondée, trente-sept ans plus tôt, à Londres, par un libraire qui lui a donné son nom, que paraît l'histoire d'un jeune lapin facétieux et désobéissant qui s'aventure dans le jardin d'un certain M. McGregor. « The Tale of Peter Rabbit » est d'emblée un immense succès dont les multiples réimpressions vont totaliser, jusqu'à nos jours , près de cinquante millions d'exemplaires. Traduit en trente-six langues, « le conte de Pierre lapin » deviendra l'un des plus grands best-sellers de tous les temps. Ni plus ni moins. Et pourtant, l'aventure n'avait pas démarré sous les meilleurs auspices, puisque son autrice, Beatrix Potter, essuyant les refus répétés des éditeurs, s'était résignée à faire publier son ouvrage à compte d'auteur. L'énigmatique Beatrix Potter, la timide Beatrix Potter qui se fera, pourtant, redoutable femme d'affaires, douée pour le merchandising autour de son œuvre. « Il y a quelque chose de délicieux à écrire les premiers mots d'une histoire, écrivait-elle, vous ne savez jamais où ils vont vous emmener. » Assurément ses histoires l'ont menée à la campagne, hors de la présence envahissante de ses parents, auprès des Herdwick sheeps, ces moutons à laine très épaisse, adaptée à la rudesse des climats de la région des Lacs, dans le nord de l'Angleterre. Audacieuse, volontaire, dans une certaine mesure, émancipée mais, en même temps, anti-suffragettes qui était Miss Potter ? Sujets traités : Beatrix Potter, Peter Rabbit, Royame Uni, Londres, best-sellers, auteur, anti-suffragettes Avec nous : Eliane van den Ende.

In this episode of our series on the lingering hold of bad ideas David talks to the writer and broadcaster Helen Lewis about the arguments made at the turn of the last century against giving the vote to women. Why were so many women against female enfranchisement? What did attitudes to women in politics reveal about the failings of men? And where can the echoes of these arguments still be heard today?Helen Lewis's Difficult Women: A History of Feminism in 11 Fights is available wherever you get your books https://bit.ly/3wp8DNX Sign up now to PPF+ to get ad-free listening and bonus episodes to accompany every series.

Englishness has been hijacked by the right. The flag of St. George's Cross is proudly waved at far-right rallies. Conservative politicians insult the Left as being anti-English. And our history has been weaponised by cheerleaders for Brexit, exceptionalism and imperial nostalgia. That's the argument of Caroline Lucas, who came to the Intelligence Squared stage in April 2024 to offer us a radically new way of viewing England and Englishness. Lucas has long been at the forefront of progressive politics in the UK, having twice led the Green Party. Discussing her new book, Another England: How to Reclaim Our National Story with political commentator Grace Blakeley, Lucas explores how to redefine nationalism by centering the English people's history of radical inclusivity, deep-rooted commitment to the natural world and long struggle to win rights for all. These often overlooked stories place the Chartists, the Diggers and the Suffragettes alongside Nelson and Churchill, and draw on a rich literary history to explore our shared challenges of identity and equality today.
