Getting Better Acquainted

In GBA 244 we get better acquainted with Alison Phipps. She talks about her roundabout route to becoming an academic, how her politics have changed and grown over time, researching lad culture, sexual violence and reproductive rights, the dialectics of feminism, including sex worker and trans rights within feminism, how institutions work and the way that music and singing have framed and shaped her life. Content note: This episode includes discussion of sexual assault, rape and violence.
