This picture was taken from a documentary screened on my TV, and shows the 1979 meeting in England when Greenpeace International was formed. David McTaggart, shown on the right, had brokered the end of the lawsuit between Canada and the US, after which representatives from all the countries came together, and agreed to join a unified organization located in Amsterdam. Kay, shown on the left, had been chosen to represent the US offices.
Her enduring comment on the meeting was “I couldn’t believe all the women who were getting coffee for the men”.
