Description
This folder includes the recorded audio of the interview along with a transcript of the recording and a photograph of Armorel.
Solidarity brought Armorel to Greenham, being in awe of the women at the camp and wanting to support them. She had been an avid CND member on the front line of activism, originally being politicised by the Cuban missile crisis, but said Greenham was like taking on a new world. She laments at how much irresponsibility there was in the world and remembers being overcome by the messages and emblems on the fence creating a type of art installation when she brought food and Embraced the Base. Armorel has always been a musician and singer. With her band 'The children', she recorded the song 'The Base' and other political songs.
Armorel was interviewed by Vanessa Pini in March 2021.
The photograph was supplied by Armorel.
