βThe producers of The Sisterhood believe that women-only spaces are necessary in a world that is still run by and designed to benefit mainly men. Oppression against women continues in various manifestations around the world today, in different cultural contexts,β said organizers in a statement.Β βIn the UK, the gender pay gap in the workplace, cuts to domestic violence services and sex worker rights are current talking points that highlight this issue. Sisterhood seeks to provide a secret space for women to connect, network, share their stories, have fun and learn the best way to support each other in our global struggle to end oppression against women and all marginalised people, while showcasing the best and boldest female talent in the UK and beyond.β
The Sisterhood will be located in Glastonbury’sΒ Shangri-La zone and will feature live music, DJs and workshops on intersectionality, diversity and inclusion.Β It will also includeΒ daily dance classes and even a DIY power tools workshops with carpenter Rhi Jean.
