What are the the overlaps between anti-feminist rhetoric and activism with fascism? What is feminist populism? What can we learn from the resistance to Poland's abortion ban in a post-Roe v Wade America?

The Campus Sexual Assault Industrial Complex: A Story of Professionalization & Bureaucratization
jeudi 2 décembre 2021 • Durée 01:00:36
On this episode of AGSC, Tamsyn and Paniz are joined by...each other, to talk about the reason they first met years ago: campus sexual assault, and the profound uselessness of the university administrators getting paid to address it. Having spent many years organizing, researching, and writing about the issue since then, they have seen how universities spend all their time and money on programs like consent education and sweeping policy change, without seeing any actual reduction in the number of students being assaulted on their campuses. Paniz and Tamsyn talk about why these neoliberal approaches don’t meet survivors’ actual (namely, material) needs or take into account the role of power in sexual violence - and what we can do instead.
