Episode notes

Do you identify as a feminist? This week we interview Dr Akane Kanai about feminist culture and social media.

Dr Akane has her own podcast called “Feminist Not Fearless” where she explores themes including the intersection of feminist pop culture and consumerism, the pressure of living up to feminist ideals, the pleasure and exhaustion of raging in the comments, grappling with rapid news cycles, and slippery terminology.

Join us as Dr Akane shares knowledge from her Digital Feminist Futures research project at Monash University, and answers questions from our different generations about feminism and how each of our different gens and sexes at The XYZ Experiment approach and understand it.
