Spectra: Fucking While Feminist Episode 23
This week Jaclyn catches up with Spectra, a Nigerian writer, media advocate, and "Love" activist, who's just returned from traveling through Southern Africa for 6 months, where she trained African women's rights activists to use media and technology for advocacy. She brings us some stories of lgbt lives in some of the countries she visited that the US press never tells -- and explains exactly how the US press impacts those lives. Then we dig into a heartfelt and complex listener question about trans* identity, fat bodies, and how to love your body and want to change it at the same time.Click here to listen.Links for this show:
