On this week's episode of KR, I am joined by Lindsey MacGregor; a dancer, community builder, and determined democrat. Lindsey talks about her role in the office of a Congressman, how this has been affected by the government shutdown, and her political goals for the future. We share our favorite dance memories and hear some inspiring stories of young Lindsey's political awakening. Lindsey and I discuss community building as resistance, and how traditional women's roles and feminist views play into this. Finally, Lindsey shares lessons she has learned at Oxford about the importance of education. 

Happy (almost) Halloween everyone :)

On this special episode release of Kinda Radical, I'm talking all things braiding. We start with a wide history of braiding that takes us through time and around the globe. We move into specific cultural examples of how braiding can mean more than just a hairstyle; it carries messages, ties you to your ancestors, and demonstrates your heritage and culture. Finally, I explain how braiding is, and will continue to be, political.

On this week's episode of Kinda Radical we are joined by scholar, author, researcher, and professor Benjamin Zeller! 

In 2003 Professor Zeller wrote an article titled We're The Other Catholic Church, Feminism in a Radical Catholic Renewal Community. This article follows the story of Spiritus Christi, a Catholic church in Rochester New York who made waves based on their progressive practices - like having Mary Ramerman become a pastor. Throughout this episode we talk about women's role in the Catholic Church, the representation of clothing in religion and why it played such a symbolic role in this story, and how the church can achieve gender equality in the future.

Welcome to a special and long overdue episode of KR! Today, we're talking the basics. Join me and only me to define patriarchy, chat about how we see it in our daily lives, and how it harms pretty much everyone. Then we define matriarchy, give examples of matriarchal societies around the world, and argue what changes we would see in a matriarchal world vs a patriarchal one. This episode is factual, philosophical, and just kind of radical.
