MC Dreckschwester (aka Stinky Girl) from Roominations speaking at 3CR's IWD street party on Tuesday March 8. An event actively pushing back against white liberal corporate feminism. Roominations Radio was a show produced and presented by people with a lived experience of homelessness that until recently was presented on 3CR - sadly a casualty of the corporatisation of community services. You heard at the end there - part of a set from DJ Marroushti from Salaam Radio Sundays on 3CR from 4pm. Check out the full IWD 24hour Broadcast.

8:15AM - Claudia, a former employee at the Australian lingerie company Honey Birdette, and Felicity Sowerbutts from Young Workers Centre, join us to speak about the campaign to end sexual harassment at Honey Birdette. Despite the tireless organising of former employees associated with the 2015 Not Your Honey campaign, Claudia's recently launched petition raises concerns about the company's failure under the Equal Opportunity Act to prevent and respond to sexual harassment in the workplace.
