‘An evening of poetry, feminism and witchcraft with the poets of Pink Witch chat with Zoe Venditozzi, co-founder of the Witches of Scotland.
A chance aside by Zoe Venditozzi of the Witches of Scotland campaign inspired the poems of Pink Witch, which question identity, vilification and the names historically used to constrain women. Now for the first time, the poets chat with Zoe and discuss the inspiration behind these dark, insightful and frequently humorous pieces. Witches of Scotland is a campaign for a legal pardon, an apology and a national monument for the thousands of people executed for witchcraft in Scotland. The campaign was set up by Zoe Venditozzi and Claire Mitchell KC. Their podcast has over 70 episodes. Pink Witch is topical, intimate and eclectic, in turns sombre and funny, lighthearted and reflective, by some of Scotland’s best women poets.’
