Description
<p>Joining us this week on the Radicals & Revolutionaries Lab is Dr. Lina AbiRafeh, a feminist, activist, accidental academic, and Executive Director of the <a href="https://aiw.lau.edu.lb/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Arab Institute for Women</a>. Our host, Jillian Foster, speaks with Lina about being at the helm of the institute, working at the intersection of academia and activism. This episode digs into that and more as Lina shares her thoughts on the complexity of activism in Arab regions, what it would take to rebuild Beirut as a feminist city, the burden of our own security as women, and more. This conversation and Lina’s work leave us dreaming of the dawn of a different era– one in which women are entitled to all of the same freedoms that men have.</p><br><p><strong>Connect with Dr. Lina AbiRafeh:</strong></p><p>Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/LinaAbiRafeh/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@LinaAbiRafeh</a></p><p>Twitter: <a href="https://twitter.com/LinaAbiRafeh/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@LinaAbiRafeh</a></p><br><p>Join our movement for radically authentic, intentional, interconnected feminism inside <a href="https://www.continuumcollective.org/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Continuum Collective</a>.</p><br /><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> See <a style='color:grey;' target='_blank' rel='noopener noreferrer' href='https://acast.com/privacy'>acast.com/privacy</a> for privacy and opt-out information.</p>
