Lidia Cirillo (born 24 April 1940) is an Italian writer and socialist feminist.[1]

Biography

Cirillo has been active in the feminist movement since the late 1960s and politically engaged from an early date as a socialist activist in the Italian Section of the Fourth International, Proletarian Democracy, Communist Refoundation Party (of which she was a member of the National Political Committee) and then of the Critical Left (with which she was a candidate for the Senate in the 2008 elections).

She was part of the editorial staff of Erre magazine and its precursor Bandiera rossa, and also collaborated for several years with the daily Liberazione. She has written several books on feminism and is the curator of the permanent workshop of the Quaderni viola which since the end of the eighties has been developing pamphlets and books on the theme of female emancipation.[2] It is also active on LGBT issues.

She was one of the Italian protagonists of the World March of Women and speaker in various assemblies of the European Social Forum on feminist issues. She has also participated as a speaker in numerous editions of the youth camp of the Fourth International.
