CONTENT WARNING: Discussions of gendered and sexual violence throughout.

This episode is hosted by Katherine Gwyther and Simeon Whiting. In this episode, we discuss Charlotte's recent paper about misogyny, the Hebrew Bible, and environment. Our resulting conversation covers everything from the texts themselves, the connections between women and land, and what this means for our current world and climate crisis.
