Her book of the same name is a collection of essays examining the structural inequality that allows violence against women and girls to take hold, covering subjects from porn to the patriarchy. She is joined by fellow activist and campaigner Jamie Klingler who co-founded Reclaim These Streets and organised the vigil for Sarah Everard which journalist and women’s rights campaigner Pavan Amara, who set up the My Body Back project about whether real change can happen in communities like Hackney and if so, what needs to be done by everyone – parents, friends, educators, policy makers, the police, community organisations and everyone in between.
