Tonight Jessica Valenti, author of Full Frontal Feminism and He’s a Stud, She’s a Slut, did a reading at Camera Gallery in an event co-sponsored by Shameless and The Miss G Project for Equity in Education. What followed was a lively panel discussion on contemporary feminism and the issues facing young feminists today. Shameless was on hand to take some pictures and have too many glasses of red wine.

What a great night! Thanks to all who helped organize. It was definitely worth the trip into the city from Hamilton.
