Women for peace: Greenham Common
Cardiff, 1981. A group of women with hand-made banners embark on a march of over one hundred miles to Greenham Common military base – all in the name of nuclear peace. This march led to the establishment of camps that, for nearly two decades, drew women from all over the world to make their voices heard in the name of peace.
Women for Peace displays the incredible craftsmanship and powerful designs of the protest banners from the Greenham camps. This talk will celebrate the creativity of the thousands of women who took stand at the protests, and whose struggle and tenacity continues to inspire and motivate activists today.
