During the 1970s and 1980s, Boston was a hub of the second wave of the feminist movement in the United States. One unique event, produced by the feminist community in Boston each spring, was the celebration of women’s music, poetry, and commentary during a 24-hour radio broadcast in honor of International Women’s Day. This broadcast became a prominent feature of the annual national celebration. It gave voice to the diversity of the women’s movement at a time when mainstream radio (and other media) rarely covered women’s issues. Join us for a panel discussion with several women who were leaders in the groundbreaking International Women’s Day Radio Project.
