About this listen

The battle for justice went well beyond the high fences of Greenham Common and Aldermaston. In this episode we hear how the peace women travelled across the globe in the fight to rid the world of nuclear weapons. We hear how former Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev paid tribute to them after signing a major peace treaty with the US, how activist Sue Say got a change in the law after being strip-searched in prison and how Greenham women were the Godmothers of today’s non-violent activism - from sit-ins to superglue.
