Rebecca Solnit . The Personal Is Political: Twenty-first Century Versions
language: English (translation into polish will be available after the meeting)
moderation: Magdalena Komornicka, Agata Sikora

When it comes to authoritarianism, what happens in the household helps us understand what happens in the nation, what happens in the nation helps us understand what happens in the household. This is a talk about feminism as an analysis of power and powerlessness from the dinner table to the bedroom to the boulevard to the parliament. It’s also an exploration of the tools feminism has given us to understand abuses of power at all levels, emerging from an analysis of feminism as a branch of human rights concerned with gender.

Writer, historian, and activist Rebecca Solnit is the author of more than twenty books on feminism, western and urban history, popular power, social change and insurrection, wandering and walking, hope and catastrophe. Her books include "Recollections of My Nonexistence"; "Hope in the Dark"; "Men Explain Things to Me"; and "A Paradise Built in Hell: The Extraordinary Communities that Arise in Disaster". A product of the California public education system from kindergarten to graduate school, she writes regularly for the Guardian and Lithub and serves on the board of the climate group Oil Change International
