Mnemosyne is the Greek Goddess of memory and language, and this podcast seeks to immortalize feminist conversations through the ancient art of storytelling. In this episode of Mnemosyne, Andrea and Ameena interview feminist poet, writer, and researcher, Smruthi Bala Kannan, who is a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Childhood Studies at Rutgers University Camden and is a past IRW Seminar Fellow. Smruthi is interested in observing the experience of being a child in post-colonial situations, studying language, culture, and ability in these contexts.
