“…These elite ABC producers were members of a global movement of women who used the media as a vehicle for their activism - and their BBC engagements played a key part in their success. There are an increasing number of histories that identify women’s proactive use of media to further their socio-political agendas, including Byerly and Ross (2006), DiCenzo et al (2011), Fisher (2019), Lloyd (2020), Skoog and DiCenzo (2011), and Thumim (2004). In Michele Hilmes’ study of American women in early radio for example, we learn how women were “competing for control over their own voices and venues, vying for the right to speak and be heard by the public at large” (1997: 131–132).…”

This article discusses the important role the BBC played in advancing the careers of ABC women in the post-war era. Adopting an integrated, transnational approach, it revisualises the British broadcasting empire from a dominion perspective, a gendered perspective. This research follows ABC television producers as they undertook transformative, transnational excursions and recognises the necessary mobility, flexibility and ingenuity women activated in order to succeed. It identifies how they exploited the imbalanced dominion dynamic and strategically used their BBC experiences to counteract the compromising gender constraints of their local production environments.

Digital archives of women's radio programming document histories of feminist activism across different eras in multiple global contexts. Mitchell surveys the ongoing development of these archives, examining their role in “re-sounding” women into history. Women's radio can be a place for individual empowerment, expression and creativity, as well as a space for collective and transnational feminist campaigning and activism. A case study of Fem FM women's community radio archive in the UK demonstrates how archives of feminist radio activism become both a repository and a maker of cultural memory.
