Wander Women Talk and Signing

Celebrate the New Year by joining us in welcoming Alexandra Blanchard and Alex Howlett as they talk about their new book "Wander Women: Tales of Transgression in a Bordered World", followed by questions and a signing.

In this moving and reflective book, Alexandra and Alex draw links between the gendering of migration and the policing of gender; between cities and borders that restrict mobility. Those sharing their stories in the book tell us what it is like to move through the world with a ‘threatening’ gender identity, the ‘wrong’ nationality, ‘transgressive’ politics, or a ‘disability’.

From the streets of London to the ruins of Syria, from Calais to Russia to Western Sahara, this book gathers voices of all ages–of pioneering activists and artists, matriarchs and mothers, politicians and humanitarians. They paint a picture of structural inequality, in which gender, movement and freedom have long been intertwined.
