SUMMARY:Campaigning for Jobs in 1980s Britain: History of the Haringey
  Women's Employment Project
DESCRIPTION: \nFREE Women's History Talk & Panel, Bruce Castle Museum
  & Archive, Lecture Hall\nThursday, 19 of March  from 7- 9 PM (doors 
 at 6:30)\nThis Women's History Month, come along to Bruce Castle Museu
 m and Archive for an evening talk by Dr. Natalie Thomlinson (Universit
 y of Reading) and panel discussion with the former organisers of the H
 aringey Women's Employment Project - Carmelita Kadeena-Whyte, Ursula M
 urray, and Joan Neary.\nWomen are rarely seen as the primary victims o
 f the unemployment crisis that hit Britain in the 1980s. Yet 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 N
 orth London. It illuminates the archives of the Haringey Women’s Emp
 loyment Project and their activism around barriers that faced local wo
 men struggling to find work, such as racial discrimination alongside s
 ex discrimination, and lack of childcare or training. This event celeb
 rates the achievements of the group, and asks what can their activism 
 teach us today.\nBooking is essential. Please book your FREE place via
  Eventbrite.\nDoors open 6.30pm – a chance for refreshments and to
  visit the project exhibition 'The National Woman's MP: Joyce Butler, 
 women's rights and women's liberation'. Talk: 7.30 – 9pm\nFor any en
 quiries, please email museum.services@haringey.gov.uk\nThis event is 
 part of the Joyce Butler Project based at Bruce Castle. The project ex
 amines the histories of women's lives, rights and work in post-war Bri
 tain. To find out more about the project and Women's History Month gal
