Where to for #Metoo?

with Virginia Trioli and Miriam Sved / chaired by Lucia Osborne-Crowley

AUSTRALIA

Generation F was Virginia Trioli’s passionate contribution to the great First Stone feminist wars of 1995-6. In this post #MeToo era, Virginia updates her classic text to assess what has changed, and what has not. Reflecting on how the #MeToo movement recalibrated relations between the sexes, Virginia is joined by co-editor of #MeToo: Stories from the Australian movement, Miriam Sved, to discuss the fallout and future of this era-defining shift.
