#10 FEMINISM
THINKS
Geneviève Fraisse
For this episode #10, Gang Of Witches gives a carte blanche to the @WTFéminisme team, Sophie Truchot and Renaud Voisin. The founders of the Instagram account and the eponymous association receive Geneviève Fraisse, philosopher and researcher emeritus at the CNRS, author and specialist in feminist thinking. Geneviève Fraisse uses equality as a “reading operator”, to think about philosophy as well as politics and art history. In particular, the philosopher highlights the similarities between feminism “who shouts in the street” and feminism “who thinks”, underlining the concordance between the street and the library (nowadays it looks like a computer). She also evokes the importance of playfulness and laughter in feminist activism, as in the performance “Un violador en tu camino”.
