Description
From Laurie Essig:
In this episode we talk to a variety of experts on the anti-gender ideology movement. They explain its history in the Catholic Church and how it slipped into far-right political movements starting in Russia, but spreading through Europe, Latin America, and the United States. Find out why Vladimir Putin and Ron DeSantis have the same policies and why feminists, LGBTQ activists, and others are fighting back to save democracy itself.
This podcast maps the global anti-gender movement, its relationship to far-right and often fascistic politicians, and how feminist and LGBTQ activists are fighting back.
