International Women's Day | Heather O’Neill: Girls Contain Multitudes

The Conversation Piece

08-03-2023 • 9 mins

When women—especially teenage girls—are depicted under the male gaze in art and media, their agency is minimized, and their creativity and passion nearly always go unnoticed. For International Women’s Day, we’re featuring a 2017 talk by Heather O’Neil, which she gave at The Walrus Talks Belonging.


Heather O’Neill spoke at The Walrus Talks Belonging, in London, Ontario, on October 17, 2017.
