E13. Exploring my country Ireland's treatment of women
Manage episode 321905064 series 3058368
To celebrate this month's International Women's Day, I bring you an episode exploring my country Ireland's treatment of women.
In the episode I talk about:
- the female role models I admired growing up in Ireland
- Ireland's shameful past of shunning unmarried women and their children
- Ireland's recent vote to legalise abortion for women
- gender based violence in Ireland and abroad
Here is the vocabulary mentioned:
a microagression = indirect, subtle, or unintentional discrimination against members of a marginalized group.
a role model = to look up to someone = to admire
to criminalise / decriminalise = to make something a crime
to shun = to persistently avoid, ignore, or reject (someone or something)
an outcry = a strong expression of public disapproval or anger.
What’s your take on this? = what’s your opinion, perspective?
Resources:
Article on Microagressions
Irish Times The Women’s Podcast
Mother and baby homes in Ireland
Ireland votes by landslide to legalise abortion
Asking for It - Louise O'Neill
