Mischka and I cover a variety of topics under the very general title of feminism and patriarchy. As this episode is released on the eve of International Women’s Day, activists are still fighting for women’s equality and it is important to remind everyone of some of the original characters in the suffragette movement and the various waves of feminism over the last 100 years.

Injustice is the relentless shadow of humanity that we may never truly unburden ourselves of, yet if we can one day attain true equality for women, maybe that shadow will also be thrown off.

Here below is a list of some of the books and movies that Mischka recommends on the subject of feminism.

Thank you for time Mischka.

Enjoy!
