GBA 132 Nina

Summary: In GBA 132 we get better acquainted with Nina. She talks bullying, complicated childhoods, feminism(s), mental health, France, twitter and more. The first GBA conversation with someone who had made a spider diagram of their life for me to follow during the conversation. And the first time Nina and I had met in person. Until then our friendship had been via email and twitter. Nina first reached out to me as a listener to the show. Some of our initial correspondence was featured in the 100th episode. https://soundcloud.com/gettingbetteracquainted/sets/gba100-1 Nina plugs: North East Feminist Gathering: http://www.nefeministgathering.com/ Blog and writing: http://fifty2stories.tumblr.com/ http://www.quailpipe.co.uk/ Twitter handle: https://twitter.com/gourenina Her podcast: https://soundcloud.com/nina-gray-1 Her radio play: https://soundcloud.com/epilepsyaction/play-diagnose-it-yourself-nina-gray-ilkley-players Epilepsy Action: https://www.epilepsy.org.uk/ We mention: Martin's episode: https://soundcloud.com/gettingbetteracquainted/gba-67-martin-the-sound-man Ally Fogg: https://twitter.com/AllyFogg http://freethoughtblogs.com/hetpat The Push: https://twitter.com/search?q=%23ThePush&src=hash Artwiculate: https://twitter.com/search?q=%23artwiculate&src=hash 1 Million and Rising: http://www.onebillionrising.org/ Ira Glass - taste / ability: http://greyscalegorilla.com/blog/2010/09/how-beginners-get-better-ira-glass-explains/ Spark London: http://www.sparklondon.com/ Audre Lourde: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audre_Lorde Laurie Penny: https://twitter.com/PennyRed http://www.newstatesman.com/laurie-penny You can hear Getting Better Acquainted on Stitcher SmartRadio, Stitcher allows you to listen to your favourite shows directly from your iPhone, Android Phone, Kindle Fire and beyond.
