Gina Martin joins us this week to discuss Koa Beck’s White Feminism; a book that has fundamentally shifted her understanding of feminism, activism and collective liberation. With that as a jump-off point, Gina also opens up about the journey from her successful anti-upskirting campaign (which led to the passing of the Voyeurism Act in 2019) to grappling with the complexities of law reform vs. transformation
We discuss;
✨ White feminism as an ideology
✨ The problems with "girl boss" and choice feminism frameworks
✨ How individualistic feminism connects to regressive movements like the trad wife movement
✨ Intersectionality's original intent and how it's been diluted as a buzzword
Gina also shares insights from her work facilitating workshops with young people, helping them think critically about gender stereotypes and societal expectations.
Featured Book: White Feminism by Koa Beck
