This Monday on KPFA Radio’s Women’s Magazine we talk to Radical feminist activist Hilla Kerner of the Vancouver Rape Relief and Women’s Shelter about organizing on the frontlines to end violence against women. And we discuss how to build on the recent viral #MeToo campaign in response to revelations of sexual assaults by Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein.
And we speak to a panel of South Asian women participating in the 3rd i film festival which centers on South Asian perspectives. The panel includes singer, composer, musician and filmmaker Gingger Shankar talking about her film Nari, actress Nabila Hussein who co-stars in the show Brown Girls, and documentary filmmaker Pallavi Somusetty. They discuss their work and issues of representation and sexism in the film industry.
The film festival starts November 9-12 in San Francisco and November 18 in Palo Alto. For more info, schedule and tickets on the 3rd i Film festival go to: www.thirdi.org
