Zelda Perkins on speaking out against Weinstein and breaking NDA - live at Hay Festival Tales 2022

Weinstein whistleblower and Can't Buy My Silence founder Zelda Perkins talks about how she found her voice to take on one of the most powerful men in entertainment. The talk was shared as part of an evening of stories - Hay Festival Tales: A Night of Hope - to commemorate the 35th anniversary year of the Festival.

Zelda Perkins has been campaigning since 2017 when she was the first woman to break an NDA, signed decades earlier, with Harvey Weinstein. She is the co-founder of Can't Buy My Silence, bringing the systematic abuse of NDAs to the attention of the British Government and international press and pushing the England and Wales Solicitors Regulatory Authority to take disciplinary action against the lawyer who created her NDA for Weinstein. She was named a Person of the Year by Time magazine in 2017 and by the Guardian in 2020.
