To Be Human Is To Have A

I'm Appalled That The Word 'feminism' Has Been Denigrated To A Place Of Almost Ridicule And I Very Passionately Believe The Word Needs To Be Revalued And Reintroduced With Power And Understanding That This Is A Global Picture. It Isn't About Us And Them.

I Wouldn't Have Known When I Was A Teenager That When I Was Coming Up To Being A Sixty-year-old Woman That I'd Be Making Music, I'd Be Recording Music, Talking About Music, And Incorporating My Views On The World Into The Music-making. So It's A Very Rarefied Place To Be, And I'm Very Grateful For That.
