Introducing
The F Word
Our first capsule is called The F Word.
In The F Word, we trace how the meaning of feminism has shifted over time - across cultures, movements, identities. From anti-feminist women to TikTok aesthetics, from academic theory to real-world resistance, this capsule explores the distance between the label and the lived experience.
It’s not about reclaiming feminism for the sake of it. We set out to name the friction and fatigue of this word. Through essays, interviews, art and poetry, we behin our first transmission with one of the most misunderstood signals of them all.
