SIM Ep 368 Chops 159: Women, COVID-19 and spotlit inequality

The Fawcett Society has been fighting sex inequality since 1886. Mick caught up with its CEO, Sam Smethers, to talk specifically about women and Coronavirus, and how the pandemic is further highlighting structural inequality. Which is bad, yes, but Sam does have hope that this means those at the top might realise things need to change when it comes to moving forward post-Coronavirus. https://www.fawcettsociety.org.uk/ Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/standardissuespodcast.
