#56 Raging Grannies, elderly acting and images of women

It's still series 1 and we have no plans to move onto series 2 at any point. It's easier to keep track of how many episodes we have published ;)Raging Grannies captured our imaginations this week thanks to Sharon Blackie, author of Hagitude. Social justice activists who dress up and sing protest songs. Sounds right up our street but there don't seem to be any gaggles in UK and we can't sing (but apparently that's not a requirement). One to think about.Having read an article in The Guardian about a rocket scientist who started acting professionally in her 60s, Tracy was interested to understand what drew Heather to acting at a more mature age (apologies for title Heather, I am not suggesting that you are elderly, honest!). I am hoping that Heather doesn't read this blurb....Heather's thing is an article with 38 images that change the way we see women, for better and for worse. Of course images don't lend themselves to podcasts, but she has a good attempt at describing these Protestors, Popstars and Pioneers.And then Heather wondered who decided that a sandwich and crisps is THE lunch food? And when did that happen? Beware nostalgia incoming.Right. Let's revolt! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
