Hi there

Please could you highlight to networks the play YelloWing. Julia Taudevins interpretation of the feminist text The yellow wallpaper. This is one of 200 events in the Scottish Mental Health Arts and Film Festival, performing across Scotland but starting :

Sat 3 Oct at Edinburgh Storytelling Centre just £7/£5 concessions/£4 groups of 4 or more -tel 0131 5569579

It would be great to get a decent turnout to support the cause.

Hi,

I’m interested in your group, as I’m about to move to Edinburgh. However, I’m concerned by the ‘women only’ policy of your meetings. Is there a reason for this? Generally I dislike ‘women-only’ feminism as it doesn’t promote equality. Men should be able to participate in feminist activity at every level.

Hi Sara,

You’ll be very welcome! The group at the moment operates as an inclusive discussion place – so we don’t have an agreed line on anything. We meet once a month on the first sunday afternoon with a different topic each month. The women that come along all have different veiws, different types of feminism. Some of us may have stances about stripping, or veiws on how it operates now, or on pay and conditions, harrasment, ect. So I’ll be honest, and say that I can’t guarentee no one would question stripping as such. We take ’safe’ discussion space very seriously though, and don’t allow personal attacks on individuals, agressive stances. Personally i see differences of opinions as a strength. Please do come along, we are meeting sunday 7th at the macdonald road library, at 3pm!

Hilary

Hi
Can tell me how i can get involved with the group please as I was a member of my uni group in Stirling and now working in Edinburgh makes it a bit difficult to attend meetings but i’m still really passionate about the issues relating to us today.

Thanks
