”In the New System, will we have stories?”: Ex JW Writer, Rebecca Woodward

Saturday Jun 03, 2023
Rebecca Woodward is a writer, published in the New York Times, Huffpost and Electric Literature. She was raised as a Jehovah's Witness and recently wrote a well received piece in the Electric Lit about Prince Harry's memoir 'Spare'. Rebecca talks about her experience growing up in and trying to be part of the religious group and her burning desire to write, her struggles to make her way in education and find a life of her own. Stephen, Celine and Rebecca also imagine the astonishing consequences of living forever in so-called perfection - can there be stories and drama when everyone and everything is perfect?
Stephen is raising Money for the Family Survival Trust with a ride from Lands End to John ò Groats. You can sponsor him here. https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/cult-hackers
