A Woman's Place is in the Press: Helen Lewis (London, 9 November 2023)

With regret, the last video cuts out just before the close of Helen Lewis' fantastic talk. Please take away her last sentences: "But journalists have to stand apart from activists. Not doing so was what got us into this mess in the first place." A Woman’s Place UK (WPUK) was pleased to host A Woman's Place is in the Press, where we were joined by a panel of expert journalists who clearly advocate for the sex-based rights of women. Each embody the spirit of resistance, representing the interests of women at a time when many seek to silence feminist voices. Hear about the obstacles they have overcome, the obstacles still in our path and how can we make sure women's interests are represented in the press. Their accounts of standing firm and making women’s concerns heard had particular resonance as we enter a general election year. WPUK has been hosting sold-out public meetings at venues around the country since 2017. In that time, we have seen policymakers begin to realise the importance of preserving sex-based rights. This evening will be an occasion for reflecting on, and celebrating, the role that female journalists have played in leading the fightback against a sustained attack on women’s rights. Helen Lewis is a staff writer at the Atlantic, host of the BBC’s The New Gurus, and a regular on the Private Eye podcast, Page 94.
