"One of the first things we discover in these groups is that personal problems are political problems. There are no personal solutions at this time. There is only collective action for a collective solution." Carol Hanisch, 169 Here we have a collection of prose and poetry that aims to help you frame your personal ideals and problems into a global, politicised context. Here we have three young writers who want to be taken seriously. Here we want to start something. Personal Is Political is an anthology collecting pieces by Liam Whear, Penny Gotch and Susan Wright, from Canterbury Christ Church University, on environmentalism, feminism, mental health, body image, identity, and more.
