No Offence, But... by Gina Martin

Wiser Than Yesterday: Book club

How to have difficult conversations, for meaningful change.

We break down Gina Martin's book addressing how to navigate some of the worst conversation-stoppers and poor thinking in our culture today.

It also features chapters from other widely recognized speakers on the topics of equality and diversity.

Labeled as "An empowering guide to navigating difficult conversations from climate naysayers to the #notallmen brigade, featuring chapters from brilliant writers and activists like Cathy Reay, Ben Hurst, Salma El-Wardany, and many others."

Gina Martin is a gender equality activist, speaker, and writer whose work focuses on gender, misogyny, and sexual violence. She is a proud ambassador for UN Women UK and Beyond Equality.

We had conflicting opinions on the book that you'll have to listen to find out more.
