A narrative podcast that unravels over 40 years of feminist movements—and reimagines a way forward.
Our podcast offers true stories that are part of a constellation of feminist activism today. Each episode explores unique but interconnected feminist realities that are achieving greater gender justice and human rights. We speak with Black Brazilian activists challenging systemic racism, feminists who are pushing back on unfettered corporate power, trans women and sex workers fighting for the rights of all women regardless of gender identity or line of work, and young feminists who are paving a way forward. Each story will ignite your feminist fire and move you to action.

In this episode we learn from the experiences of two activists carving their own paths as queer black feminists in Brazil and carrying forward the Black feminist movement.
Valdecir Nascimento took her first step into a lifetime of activism in the 1980s, when she and her Black peers broke from a long lineage of White-led feminist organizations. A generation later, Jessica Ipolito is taking up the mantel, infusing the Black feminist cause with an acknowledgement that the voices of queer black youth are still underrepresented.
Featuring Valdecir Nascimento, Executive Coordinator of ODARA–Instituto da Mulher Negra (Black Women´s Institute) and Jész Ipólito Organizer, Articulação Nacional de Negras Jovens Feministas - ANJF
