Synopsis "Here we Stand: Women Changing the World (Honno Voices)"

A fascinating and unique anthology about contemporary women campaigners and how they were changed by the process of changing the world. Through a series of interviews and articles, 17 key British women campaigners talk intimately about the difficult and exhilarating nature of their work. These women have organized, marched on the streets, joined protest camps, opened refuges, blogged from war zones, and smashed up military equipment. They have gone undercover, lived in trees, stormed Parliament, and taken on the world's largest corporations. They have been fired from their jobs, attacked, psychologically abused, jailed, shot at, sued, deceived by police spies, and even disowned by their families. And they are changing history. These original testimonies are uplifting, shocking and moving.
