21, Apr. IGS Seminar “On Loving Feminism in Troubled Times”

2025.4.21 IGS Seminar
On Loving Feminism in Troubled Times

Too often, in times of anti-feminist and misogynist backlash, we blame feminism and feminist activists for having somehow failed: failed to understand the problem, failed to address these problems adequately, failed to garner support throughout the population. In this lecture, Dr. Suzanna Walters will talk about the expansive power of “loving feminism” as a form of resistance, especially during periods of such intensive attacks on everything feminists hold dear.
