About this listen
The crone/witch myth and how it portrays women who have developed power through age, knowledge, and wisdom as the greatest threat to young women. How does dividing women by age impact young and older women? How does this benefit men and disadvantage women? What are the structural aspects that disempower older women? What are the effects on women and non-binary people of all ages and how does this impact wider society?
Jane explores these myths and questions with Yumi Lee, CEO of Older Women’s Network.
