Episode 7: Feminist Food Futures
Here is the link to the transcript: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1VZcavCcqSEIBMaRYwmHe8fhT68yy355XLtZSMHXBL4k/edit?usp=sharing
In the past six episodes we have been talking a lot about feminist and queer food history and what is going on in the present. Today we are going to shift our framing somewhat. I begin by talking about how the framing of our food futures sometimes falls in a kind of retro-futurism that perpetuates racism and sexism. We then chat with filmmaker, writer, and podcaster Anna Sigrithur about feminism, fermentation, and rot.
This is our final episode for the podcast.
