Woman's Hour asking for stories of women's activism

I've not been here much lately so apologies if this has been mentioned somewhere already, but I caught a bit of Woman's Hour this morning and heard Dame Jenni (of the gender critical viewpoint) mention that they're doing a programme about political activism.

She asked for people to get in touch with their own experience of activism - and specifically mentioned people who were new to it. It seems to be the perfect way to get the current threat to women's rights onto WH, who have steadfastly ignored it. Shoutout to the ManFriday team? I know they've already done/are still doing loads, but this would be a great platform to publicise their brilliant efforts - an inspiring story of creative, non-aggressive women's activism.

Here is the link to the programme - www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b0b5qnbv#play
The bit where it was mentioned is about 19 minutes in (sandwiched between items on Martha Gellhorn and Jo Cox...)

Yes, ManFriday and Transgender Trend should definitely try to get on to this. Also the new group that has formed in SW off the back of the Truro meeting.
