Making the Change with Gina Martin

What is up-skirting?

It is when someone (usually a man) takes a photo underneath a woman’s skirt without her knowing, violating her rights.

After this happened to Gina Martin at a concert, she campaigned to make up-skirting a criminal offence, and succeeded. Gina was named one of Time Magazine’s #100Next most influential people.

Her first book “Be The Change” is out now. Gina is a bright star for coming generations in terms of body image, activism, and more.

This is the next episode of the Tough Love, Just Breathe podcast.
