17: United by the Struggle with Anne Scargill & Betty Cook


Listen Later

In this episode we were joined by Barnsley women, socialists and trade unionists Anne Scargill & Betty Cook. They are founding members of Women Against Pit Closures, a movement that brought feminism into Working Class industrial disputes, fighting for & feeding mining families during the 1984 miners strike and beyond.
 
They wrote a fantastic book about their lives and experiences called 'United by the Struggle'. If you would like to buy a signed copy for £20 plus £3 p&p, email [email protected]
