A publication analysing the broken democracy from a socialist and feminist perspective, but most importantly, how to resist and create change.
Feminism is once again the scapegoat for all of society’s ills, dangerously fuelling misogyny and the rise of violence against women and all those who don’t strictly conform to the “traditional” gender binary. Through my articles, I try to provide a better understanding of the world and unknit the narrative we are sold by the elites (no, minorities are not the ones stealing from the state, they are not the reason we cannot afford living), but most importantly I want to show another story. One that takes time and research, through history, conversations and current events, finding the real culprit to our broken system bit by bit, chaotically.
How?
In this newsletter, I write about feminism (intersectional), class, wars, democracy and society.
There is no publication schedule, but it is never more than once a week and never less than once a month.
Who?
I was born and raised in Belgium’s deep countryside in the 90’s. I studied journalism and obtained my MA from IHECS and UCLouvain (thanks to affordable higher education!), where I wrote my thesis on the decline of the rule of law in the EU, and a media thesis that explored the political weaponisation of Muslim women, through so-called “hijab laws”, in Belgium, the UK and Iran.
I moved to the UK just as Brexit took place and I currently work as a researcher in gender equality. Former waitress and bartender (10+ years experience it means something ok), I romanticise the shit out of it.
