As a thoughtfully outspoken journalist, author, and movement leader, Rachel Hills calls on her audiences and co-collaborators to inspect narratives that work to bind us in oppressive structures. Her recent book, The Sex Myth, presents the provocative hypothesis that the sexual revolution beginning the 1960s has confined us in our own narratives. She posits that our performative speaking keeps us from actually practicing truly liberated, honest, and authentic sexualities. Rachel’s book has been adapted into a devised play where each cast conjures and creates the play anew. You can find Rachel on Twitter at @rachelhills.

This week’s revolutionary is Anja Tyson: a single mom and Brooklynite who works in fashion sustainability. Anja works as a Fashion Sales Manager at TIPA Compostable Packaging, which is a company that’s innovating new ways to reduce the amount of single-use plastics that are used to wrap around clothing before being thrown in the trash.
As our conversation unfolds, Anja tells me all about her childhood and her unique experiences about growing up biracial. Now, as a single mother with a biracial child, she’s seeing her own childhood experiences through a different lens. Anja shares some insights on how she’s raising her child to be socially and racially conscious.

This weeks’ revolutionary is Sophia Wallace, visual artist and creator of Cliteracy. Sophia grew up in Seattle, Washington and currently lives in New York City. Throughout her childhood, she was a feminist before she had the language to really say it. Now, as an adult, the art that she produces is striking, unapologetically sapphic, and groundbreaking. Her work stems from a place of authenticity, including her own body, life, history, and lived experience and aims to create freedom for language and expand the language used around the feminine body.
Throughout our conversation, Sophia dives deep into the Cliteracy project and the impact it’s had, along with also discussing how power represents and normalizes itself in the visual.

This week’s revolutionary is Nasreen Alkhateeb, a filmmaker, activist, and feminist. She was born in the United States but raised for the first 7 years of her life in Saudi Arabia. After her family moved back to the United States, Nasreen started to realize that she was different from those around her and that she would have to go above and beyond to break social barriers and form friends. This played a major role in how Nasreen learned to tell stories and design her own reality.
Now, Nasreen is a storyteller. She translates messaging and storytelling into visuals for people to immerse themselves into. She helps clients create short-form narrative, usually in video form and content that lives online. With this, Nasreen uses her skills to give voice to the marginalized. She helps others go above and beyond to break barriers, tell their stories, and participate in feminist movements.

This week’s revolutionary is Dr. Anne Marie Goetz, a professor of Global Affairs at New York University’s Center for Global Affairs. Prior to her work as a professor, she worked at the UN as a policymaker on women, peace, and security. Currently, Dr. Goetz’s work looks at what makes states effective in addressing women’s rights and under what conditions do feminist movements succeed in patriarchal states.
Throughout our conversation, Dr. Anne Marie shares insights into what feminism looks like on a global level, including anecdotes from various cultures that demonstrate how women’s rights are changing around the world. She also shares extensively about her work with UNIFEM, around right-wing populism, and how she finds the motivation to continue persevering with her feminist work.

Joining us this week on the Radicals & Revolutionaries Lab is the fascinating Dr. Sophia Yen, CEO and co-founder of Pandia Health: the only women-founded, women-led birth control delivery company. She's also the proud mother of two future she-heros & the wife of a feminist. Our host, Jillian Foster, speaks with Sophia about the experience of having a period, making periods optional, and the impact this has on your health. This episode digs into that and more as Sophia shares why we are menstruating more often than women in history, the implications of level 10 blood over time, how women "syncing up" it totally a thing, and the critical distinction between emergency contraception and medication abortion. Sophia's work and this conversation debunk the myth that a woman's body's "natural state" has regular, monthly periods. Call me, beep me, if you want to reach us... we'll be at our gynecologist's office.

Joanne Wilson is the powerbitch of all powerbitches. She started her career in retail, moved to the media side of the technology industry, and is now an investor following what she calls the female founder thesis; meaning, women founders tend to be great investment opportunities because they are tenacious and thorough, both asking questions and listening. I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again … I want to be Joanne Wilson when I grow up. You can find Joanne on Twitter at @thegothamgal. Learn more about Continuum at continuumcollective.org.

This week’s revolutionary is Xhercis Mendez. She is a scholar-activist and constantly looking for any creative strategies that allow us to create the world we want to live in. Her academic works combine women of color and decolonial feminisms, while her focus remains on transformative justice and actively combating structural inequities.
Our conversation begins with Xhercis explaining how she took control of her own life, education, and grabbed her future by the reins. She essentially maneuvered her way into attending an upper-class boarding school and found ways to navigate between that world and her working-class roots. From there, Xhercis continues to share her experiences with race, class, identity, and how to find trustworthy community throughout a constantly shifting life.
