Interrupting Business As Usual

Ep 35: White Feminism Runs on Fear


Listen Later

In this episode of "Interrupting Everything," Nikki Blak explores the concept of safety and fear within the framework of white feminism.

She argues that fear, often weaponized by white feminism, immobilizes folks and keeps them complicit in oppressive systems.

Nikki discusses how white feminism uses fear as a guiding principle, encouraging silence and complicity rather than action and calls for a shift from performing politics to practicing them, urging listeners to let go of the "good white woman" identity and take liberatory risks.

The episode concludes with a call to action to register for her free class, "How to Stop Failing at Feminism," and an invitation to join the final cohort of "Interrupting White Womanhood."
