  • Episode six - Black womanhood with Rayann Alves Bryan
    This episode is the final episode for season 1 of the bullshit binary. Rayann talks us through her experience and her research on black womanhood. We talk empowerment and community, and how (not) to show solidarity (and yes, we do discuss the curious case of rachel dolezal briefly).

  • Episode five - feminist wilderness work with Tori Staley

    In Episode five, Clara interviews Tori Staley on the complexities of being a feminist outdoors. Oumou joins for the intro, and leaves us with some food for thought. We discuss colonialism and sexual assault, as well as transphobic language, so please take care of yourselves first. Find us on Instagram and Twitter @bullsh_tbinary.

  • Episode four - gender and nationalism in India with Bhavya Jhaveri

    In episode four, Bhavya takes us on a journey through India's history with nationalism, and we think through different narratives and their presence/absence. We discuss the relation of gender, gender binaries, and nationalisms in different contexts, and because this is such a massive topic, this episode is a bit longer than the last ones. Of course, there is no way we can even begin to cover the whole scope of nationalism and gender in one episode, but we hope you enjoy this one as a starting point.
