Mary Kennedy, the previous senior lecturer in girls’s research and social historical past at Birkbeck, College of London, labored tirelessly in lots of feminist organisations.
Within the Nineties she and I co-chaired the British Ladies’s Research Affiliation. Her index playing cards of feminist academics, college students and activists, all of whom Mary knew personally, was the biggest assortment in London, and fairly presumably within the UK.
Mary was such a beneficiant, supportive feminist educational, and will likely be drastically missed. I deposited papers of the affiliation in The Ladies’s Library, Whitechapel, since integrated into the London Faculty of Economics archive, for future researchers.
