Global Feminist Forum: How Feminist Media Helped Change the World (Discussion)

Tuesday, March 4 9:55 AM - 11:25 AM

Cowell Hall — 107 - Lecture Hall

Marusya Bociurkiw

In the film Analogue Revolution: How Feminism Media Changed the World, Marusya Bociurkiw collects Canadian feminist storytellers of the 1970s to 1990s who took hold of cutting-edge media technology to document everything—from violence towards women to how to insert a diaphragm. Analogue Revolution tells the story of a world-changing and sophisticated communications network that resulted in almost 1000 feminist journals and newspapers and dozens of radio shows, film festivals and film/video collectives across Canada.

Film director, activist & communications professor Marusya Bociurkiw, joins us to discuss her film, and how to reclaim & represent feminist and BIPOC history.
