Today I'm talking to the brilliant Jade Elouise, fat liberationist and mental health practitioner. Jade explores body image through their art, writing and poetry, and is the co-founder of Fat Lib London, an inclusive community space for people in fat and otherwise marginalised bodies.
In this episode, we cover:
👉 The death of the body positivity movement - we talk about what attracted Jade to the BoPo movement in the first place, and discuss how it has been co-opted by capitalism and no longer represents a safe space for fat bodies
👉 The difference between body positivity and fat liberation and the intersections with other liberatory politics
👉 How Jade and their co-conspirators Simran and Niki are creating a safe and nurturing community for fat folks through Fat Lib London
👉 Plus, as always, what we're snacking on atm
