Women's Liberation Conference 1978 plenary
1978
Women's Liberation Conference 1978 plenary:
“The plenary at
the end was nothing to do with me, but was deeply upsetting because
everyone had reached the stage of upsettness which very often everyone
gets to when they haven’t slept enough and everyone is trying to get
everything they want and this is our great hope, and you can’t because
you have to compromise and listen and spend time getting to know one
another and you can’t. It was a great learning experience and please
may I apologise in full for all of my cock-ups, which I don’t think
I’ve ever done, so I am publicly apologising for the inexperience of
youth and I know now it was hopelessly unprofessional and I’m sorry –
never mind, I don’t think anyone got too badly hurt as a result, but I
would do it differently now!"
