Episode 64: en(gender)ed Reflections on gender and international feminism

In this "Reflections" episode,Teri and Michael reflect back on episodes on the gender and international feminism - Episode 53: Seth Shelden on his work for Nobel Peace Prize winner ICAN and disarmament, Episode 54: Damien Mander on the Akashinga or “the Brave Ones”–an all female anti-poaching unit, and Episode 55: Leta Hong Fincher on Chinese feminists and their importance to #MeToo and international women’s rights.

Teri and Michael co-host the en(gender)ed reflections episodes which serve to help curate a series of past episodes, usually around a specific theme.  We hope these episodes help listeners coming in at that point of the podcast identify particular episodes and themes that they may want to explore. During our reflection, we talked about these additional resources:

• Mass shooting in Philadelphia with six officers shot
• Statistics behind gun deaths in the United States, 60% of which is accounted for by suicide in 2017
• The United Nations Study on Global Homicides:  Gender-Related Killings of Women & Girls
