Focusing on the global south, international contributors explore women's activism around social and political issues. Contributors from Africa, Asia, Latin America, Australia, Canada, and more explore social justice and gender equality, particularly in the global south. The issue includes photo-essays about US and South African performance art, an interview with renowned feminist activist Charlotte Bunch, and a discussion forum on Mary Wollstonecraft. Articles and fiction examine how art, humour, protests, detective novels, and transnational networks promote progressive agendas.
