DESCRIPTION:Acclaimed author and journalist CLARA BINGHAM to celebrate the release of 
 her new book "The Movement: How Women's Liberation Transformed America 
 1963-1973", an engaging history tracing women's awakening, organizing, and 
 agitating. Clara will be joined in conversation by local author and 
 activist JUDY GUMBO.\n\nFor lovers of both Barbie and Gloria Steinem, "The 
 Movement" is the first oral history of the decade that built the modern 
 feminist movement. Through the captivating individual voices of the people 
 who lived it, "The Movement" tells the intimate inside story of what it 
 felt like to be at the forefront of the modern feminist crusade, when women 
 rejected thousands of years of custom and demanded the freedom to be who 
 they wanted and needed to be.\n\nCLARA BINGHAM is an award-winning 
 journalist and the author of "Witness to the Revolution", "Women on the 
 Hill", and the co-writer of "Class Action". A former Washington, DC, 
 correspondent for Newsweek, her writing has appeared in Vanity Fair, The 
 Guardian, and The Daily Beast, among others. She lives in Brooklyn, New 
 York.\n\nJUDY GUMBO is one of the few female members of the original 
 Yippies, a satirical protest group who levitated the Pentagon to stop the 
 Vietnam War, brought the New York Stock Exchange to a halt to ridicule 
 greed and ran a pig named Pigasus for President at the 1968 Democratic 
 Convention. Judy went on to write for the Berkeley Barb and the Berkeley 
 Tribe, helped start a women's group, and visited the former North Vietnam 
 in 1970. Judy has a Ph.D. in Sociology and spent the majority of her 
 professional career as an award-winning fundraiser for Planned Parenthood. 
 In 2013, Judy returned to Vietnam to help celebrate the 40th Anniversary of 
 the Paris Peace Accords then returned again in 2019 where she was awarded a 
 medal from the Vietnamese government for her contributions to peace and 
 reconciliation. She currently lives in Berkeley.\n
