SUMMARY:Campaigning for Jobs in 1980s Britain - Haringey Women's Emplo
 yment Project
DESCRIPTION: This Women's History Month, come along to Bruce Castle M
 useum and Archive for an evening talk by Dr. Natalie Thomlinson (Unive
 rsity of Reading) and panel discussion with the former organisers of t
 he Haringey Women's Employment Project - Carmelita Kadeena-Whyte, Ursu
 la Murray, and Joan Neary.\nWomen are rarely seen as the primary victi
 ms of the unemployment crisis that hit Britain in the 1980s. By 1979, 
 women’s unemployment rates were higher than men’s across the UK. W
 omen's experiences often went unreported - both at the time, and later
 . This talk explores the experiences of women looking for jobs here in
  North London. It illuminates the archives of the Haringey Women’s E
 mployment Project and their activism around barriers that faced local 
 women struggling to find work, such as racial discrimination alongside
  sex discrimination, and lack of childcare or training. This event cel
 ebrates the achievements of the group, and asks what can their activis
 m teach us today.\nThis event is part of the Joyce Butler Project base
 d at Bruce Castle. The project examines the histories of women's lives
 , rights and work in post-war Britain. www.brucecastle.org\nBooking is
  essential. Please book your free place via Eventbrite.\nDoors open 6.
 30pm – a chance for refreshments and visit the project exhibition '
 The National Woman's MP: Joyce Butler, women's rights and women's libe
 ration'. Talk: 7.30 to 9pm\nOrganised by the Joyce Butler Project wit
 h Bruce Castle Museum & Archive. For any enquiries, please email muse
