SRM Live S03E69 - Interectional Activism, Allyship, and Privilege

Student Radio Maastricht

We have a very important topic for this hour! Activism is much more than just a post on social media or showing up at a protest. It requires an intersectional approach and should include different perspectives: race, class, language, culture, ethnicity, gender, age, ability, sexuality...🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ (it’s also Pride Month!!) But what exactly is intersectionality? Where and when did it all begin? To discuss this, we invited the lovely @bela.belissima_ and @annathalcs, to share their experiences and perspectives on the topic.✊🏼✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿 We’ll tackle allyship as well. The first step is to to acknowledge our privileges and become aware of them in day-to-day situations, but if there more to that we can do to support marginalized communities? 🤗 Tune in to learn how to be a better ally and why it’s important to listen and speak up! 🗣
