About this listen

In the 1970s, Susan Hawthorne wrote most of In Defence of Separatism but struggled to get it published. The concept was controversial then as it is now. The basic idea is that men have access to more power than women, and that therefore any relationship between men and women, whether at work, in the family or anywhere else, will always have an unequal power dynamic. Separatism is the only way to allow women at the very least some rest and time to heal, but also a ground for political awareness which will allow women to collectively break free from patriarchy once and for all. We also talk about men who harass women, White Tiger and macro-economics.
