​Helmsdale to Alness: the HARDY WOMEN of the Highlands

6/9/2021

0 Comments

 



back in the highlands I had the pleasure to visit Timespan and speak with Curator and Heritage officer Jacquie Aitken on the relationship between Herring Fishing and the Highland Clearances. Ho Colonial slavery was fed by the Herring Trade (literally) and the physiques and mobilisation of these HARDY women. Many many invisibilized histories here.
