This week on Telephone, Natalie Neal interviews French multidisciplinary artist Djelissa Latini. They discuss the thesis she completed in school, power and how we're conditioned to think of power in a binary way, finding self validation and not looking to get approval and validation from others.

You can find Djelissa's thesis on her website www.djelissalatini.com

Telephone focuses on millenial feminists and brings a candid, funny, and young perspective to the ongoing conversation around feminism.

Natalie Neal welcomes Maceo Paisley to Telephone.
