Description
This folder includes the recorded audio of the interview along with a transcript of the recording.
At the time of the interview, Kathy was an actor, a Women's Rights in Theatre activist and lived in London. She found Greenham through varied women's groups, and her first time there was for the Embrace the Base action in 1981. She spent most of her time at Blue Gate and Turquoise Gate. In this conversation, Kathy talks about the fun and creativity of protesting, such as the Halloween the women came out dressed as witches and pulled down the fence, the action where they posed as corpses, and the week she spent in Holloway Prison. Kathy has some powerful anecdotes about being arrested, her stint in prison and the women she met inside, most of whom were very much on the side of Greenham women.
Kathy was interviewed by Alice Robinson in 2019.
