Notes on this Episode:
In this podcast we use the term “female-identifying”, however, sometimes we do just say the word “women”, by which we mean it inclusively as anyone who identifies as female. We will continue to do our best throughout this podcast series to use the proper terminology and educate ourselves as preferred syntax continues to evolve.
We reference the Bechdel Test in this episode. According to Backstage.com the definition of the Bechdel Test is, “A measure of the representation of women in film and other forms of fiction. To pass, the work must feature at least two women who speak to each other about something other than a man. Some iterations of the Bechdel test require that the two women be named. The Bechdel Test first appeared in a 1985 strip of “Dykes to Watch Out For,” a long-running comic by cartoonist and writer Alison Bechdel (“Fun Home”).”
In this episode we mention the COVID-19 pandemic in the past tense, however, please note we are referencing the fact that the height of the pandemic is in the past tense, but we very much realize it continues to be an ongoing global health issue.
In this episode we reference The MeToo Movement and Tarana Burke. Tarana Burke founded the MeToo Movement, which is a global, and survivor-led movement against sexual violence, dedicated to creating pathways for healing, justice, action and leadership.
