Women Against the Bomb: Mothers of the Revolution
[]
YES! Magazine - Democracy
Mothers of the Revolution tells the story of the large role Greenham women played in the international movement for a world without nuclear weapons.
Songs by Greenham women and folk artists like Peggy Seeger, appropriately peppered with punk, evoke the exhilaration of solidarity in action.
Conservatives and tabloid media labeled Greenham women shrews, harpies, neglectful mothers, “lesbians and communists.” The abuse didn’t stop at words.
Greenham Common Women ’s Peace Camp became a center of cultural change, with some women staying long-term and others staying when they could.
Mothers of the Revolution quotes Gorbachev, years after the INF negotiations, thanking the Greenham women for their part in making the treaty possible.
