Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. She showed great courage and commitment in reporting from Burma and exemplified my belief that the best journalists are also the nicest Aung San Suu Kyi One of the most distinguished television journalists of her generation Huw Edwards Brilliant and indefatigable Jeremy Bowen She had something you call moral courage and it rubbed off on others David Aaronovitch She set the standard for bravery in many of the worlds nastiest places John Fisher Burns, New York Times She went to dangerous places to give a voice to people who otherwise would not be heard Tony Hall, BBC Director General In 1973, Sue Lloyd-Roberts joined ITN as a news trainee and went on to be one of the UK's first video-journalists to report from the bleak outposts of the Soviet Union.Travelling as a tourist, she also gained access to some of the worlds most impenetrable places like China, Tibet and Burma.During her 40-year-long career she witnessed the worst atrocities inflicted on women across the world. But in observing first-hand the war on the female race she also documented their incredible determination to fight back.The War on Womenbrings to life the inconceivable and dangerous life Sue led. It tells the story of orphan Mary Merritt who, age sixteen, instead of being released from the care of nuns was interned by them in a Magdalen Laundry and forced to work twelve hours a day six days a week, without pay, for over a decade. She gives voice to Maimouna, the woman responsible for taking over her mothers role as the village female circumciser in The Gambia and provides a platform for the 11-year-old Manemma, who was married off in Jaipur at the age of six. From the gender pay gap in Britain to forced marriage in Kashmir and from rape as a weapon of war to honour killings, Sue has examined humankinds history and takes us on a journey to analyse the state of womens lives today. Most importantly she acts as a mouthpiece for the brave ones; the ones who challenge wrongdoing; the ones who show courage no matter how afraid they are; the ones who are combatting violence across the globe; the ones who are fighting back. Sue sadly died in 2015, shortly after writing this book, today she is widely recognised as one of the most acclaimed television journalists of her generation. This book is the small tribute to the full and incredible life she lived and through it these womens voices are still being heard. . The book has been read, but is in excellent condition.
