The Guilty Feminist Presents Deborah Frances-White Book Tour
Join the bestselling author of The Guilty Feminist, Deborah Frances-White, at The Glee Club as she discusses her new book, Six Conversations We're Scared To Have.
About The Guilty Feminist Presents Deborah Frances-White Book Tour
For anyone who’s sick of avoiding the shouting – and shouting into the void.
Why have divisive conversations become so flammable?
Is there any value in cancelling historical figures?
How has the so-called ‘transgender debate’ become so toxic and what can we do to genuinely help?
Why are the most progressive people calling for censorship in comedy?
Is cancel culture real and, if so, can shaming and shunning really work?
How do we achieve progress in today’s, y’know, screaming hellscape?
We are understandably scared to have some of these conversations. But Deborah Frances-White is even more scared of not having them.
Having grown up in a cult, she knows the value of freedom of speech, critical thinking and the ability to disagree while really fighting for change. In her new book, she encourages us to ask difficult questions, really listen and know when to negotiate and when to resist. Most importantly, she explores how to change minds, including our own. And she argues that we don’t need to agree on everything in order to find a way out and a way forward on some of the biggest issues in today’s world.
Are you ready to talk?
Six Conversations We’re Scared To Have (published by Little, Brown on 3rd April 2025).
Each show will feature Deborah in conversation with a special guest. They will also offer an opportunity to put your own questions to Deborah, plus a chance to grab a signed copy of the new book.
