Description
Jo Cheetham's story is one of everyday people doing extraordinary things. In 2023, she joined the No More Page 3 campaign team and went on to protest up and down the country, attend parliament, and make an unlikely group of friends along the way.
Through her experiences, Jo shines a light on the power of grassroots campaigns and the impact one person can have when they shout louder. With humour, warmth, and irreverence, she unpeels the insanity of our patriarchal society and why it can and must change.
This is a heroic and humorous account of a woman who found herself at the head of a movement, and the ordinary people who became her closest confidants and allies. a worthwhile read for anyone interested in social activism and personal stories of courage and conviction.
