Join sociologist and bestselling author Sarah Thornton as she delves into the social and cultural significance of breasts. After undergoing a double mastectomy and reconstructive surgery, Thornton embarked on an investigation to uncover the diverse truths surrounding women's chests. Drawing on her latest book, Thornton explores the status of breasts as emblems of femininity, touching on topics such as plastic surgery, body positivity, and the commodification of breasts. Join us in person or online for a thought-provoking discussion on liberating breasts from centuries of patriarchal prejudice.
