SUMMARY:Feminist Fightback Reading Group: Anti-Gender Politics in the Populist Moment  - Part 4
DESCRIPTION:Join Feminist Fightback and friends for our summer reading group. We’ve taken the decision to replace the book we’d planned for our next reading group with ‘Anti-Gender Politics in the Populist Moment’(2023) by Agnieszka Graff and Elżbieta Korolczuk. This book is much more aligned with our politics\, particularly around trans liberation and sex work decriminalisation. \n‘Anti-Gender Politics in the Populist Moment’ charts the new phase of global struggles around gender equality and sexual democracy: the ultraconservative mobilization against “gender ideology” and feminist efforts to counteract it\, as well as how opposition to “gender” has become a key element of the rise of right-wing populism. The authors map the anti-gender campaigns as a global movement and argue that the anti-gender rhetoric is best understood as a reactionary critique of neoliberalism as a socio-cultural formation. \nWe’re reading ‘Anti-Gender Politics in the Populist Moment’  to build our collective understanding of attacks on gender and reproductive rights from the hard right\, which is the current focus of Feminist Fightback’s activism. \nThe Open Access version of this book\, has been made available under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives 4.0 license. \nThe series will take place over four sessions: \nTuesday 25th July \n\nIntroduction: The demonisation of “gender” and the crisis of democracy.\nChapter 1: Gender\, anti-gender and right-wing populism: Recasting the debate.\n\nTuesday 29th August \n\nChapter 2: Mapping the anti-gender campaigns as a global movement: From religious trend to political struggle.\nChapter 3: “Worse than communism and nazism put together”: Poland’s anti-gender campaigns in a comparative perspective.\n\nTuesday 26th September \n\nChapter 4: Gender as “Ebola from Brussels”: The uses and abuses of the anti-colonial frame.\nChapter 5: Anxious parents and children in danger: The family as a refuge from Neoliberalism.\n\nTuesday 24th October \n\nChapter 6: Counteracting anti-gender movements: Towards a populist feminism?\nConclusions: Gender in the populist moment.\n\nPlease come having read the text. Drop us a line if you would like more details and to let us know if you will be joining\, so we have an idea of numbers at feminist.fightback@gmail.com. \nThese will take place in person at Golden Lane Community Centre\, Golden Lane Estate\, London EC1Y 0SA. The venue is fully accessible. Please arrive at 7.30 for 7.45 start; we will finish at 9.00pm. All genders welcome.

SUMMARY:Feminist Fightback Filmclub presents: A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night
DESCRIPTION:Join Feminist Fightback for our Halloween film showing as this year we watch together Ana Lily Amirpour’s A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night (2014). Amirpour’s black and white debut film has become a cult classic often called the first Iranian vampire western. \nSet in the fictitious Iranian ghost town of Bad City\, the film features a chador-wearing\, skateboarding young female vampire known only as The Girl\, who stalks the streets of the city at night preying on unsavory men. \nThe Girl\, with her vampiric teeth and supernatural powers\, subverts the image of the veiled woman as submissive\, turning the victimhood suggested by the film’s title on its head. This girl walks alone at night with no fear; she is the one to be feared. \nExhibiting anger/ joy during the film at oppressive behaviour/ high points of struggle very much encouraged. Drinks and snacks will be available. \nSuggested donations on the door £2/5/10 unwaged/waged/solidarity. \nAll genders welcome. \nDoors open at 7pm. \nACCESS: \nThe film showing will take place on the ground floor of Pelican House\, in the room at the back of the courtyard. The toilets are on the same same level. The space and toilets are level access from the road. \nClosest stations Bethnal Green tube station and Bethnal Green overground station. \nClosest bus stops Cephas Street and Three Colts Lane for the 106 and 254 buses.
