Senita Appiakorang truly, truly brought so much to this episode. As you can tell from the title we covered a lot and we absolutely went there. Senita does a podcast called Points Of Intersection which made her the ideal guest to discuss Intersectional Feminism and all its nuances. She revealed how Europe was not the opulent utopia it was made out to be and the danger of a single story. Senita dove into how our understanding of gender and sexuality needs to expand waaaay beyond the Western scope. Senita discussed what it was like in Direct Provision in Kerry and how her unusual but wonderful family came to be. We also covered unlearning heterosexuality and how sometimes our romantic preferences are just that and sometimes they are shaped by the systems of power. We also bonded over having family from the same(ish) spot in rural Kerry!
