“It was really sexual harassment, thinking back. I don’t tolerate that.”

Jewish Holocaust survivor, Evelyn Fielden, was born in Germany in 1921. In 1939, Evelyn escaped to England, where she joined the Women’s Land Army. Evelyn was placed at an experimental farm that researched artificial insemination, and worked under one of the men responsible for developing the birth control pill. Evelyn was the only girl invited to work inside the lab, instead of solely outdoors with the animals. In this clip from her testimony, Evelyn discusses her experience as the only woman in the lab, recalling sexual harassment from one of her bosses.

March is Women’s History Month in the United States.
