Historian Bettany Hughes presents the third in a series of three discussions tracing the development of feminist ideas from the 1960s onwards. Bettany and guests discuss how a new generation of women embrace the label 'feminist', the issues which motivate them and how definitions of feminism have changed since the 1960s. The panellists are journalist and critic Miranda Sawyer, American writer Jessica Valenti, Zohra Moosa of the Fawcett Society, film-maker Jobeda Ali and academic Dr Geetanjali Gangoli.
