TWIH Episode 48: Inclusive Wicca with Yvonne Aburrow

This Week In Heresy

What is inclusive Wicca? In this episode we talk to author Yvonne Aburrow about her new book "All Acts of Love and Pleasure: Inclusive Wicca" which was also recently reviewed on The Wild Hunt. How does this manifest in traditional British Wicca? How has the craft evolved over the years? Why do people still cling to these outmoded and outdated traditions, and why are they so resistant to change?

Yvonne Aburrow has been a Pagan since 1985 and a Wiccan since 1991. She has an MA in Contemporary Religions and Spiritualities from Bath Spa University, and lives and works in Oxford, UK. Her most recent book is "All Acts of Love and Pleasure: Inclusive Wicca". She has also written four books on the mythology and folklore of trees, birds, and animals, and two anthologies of poetry. She is genderqueer, bisexual, and has been an anarchist socialist green leftie feminist for the last thirty years.
