Back to Our Bloodroots

This special Pride episode of Emuse broadcasts from inside a piece of American queer history.

Emma and guest host Kait Torres sit down with Noel Furie, co-founder of Bloodroot — the feminist, lesbian, vegetarian restaurant and bookstore that opened in Bridgeport in 1977 and ran for 48 years, one of the longest-lasting feminist restaurants in the country.

Noel and her late partner Selma Miriam built a world by women, for women, outside the male gaze — no chefs, no waitresses, just food, books, and community as a radical act. With Selma's passing and Bloodroot's recent closing on the winter solstice, Noel reflects on the long arc of being "all on the outside," what's gained and lost as queer life moves toward the mainstream, and what it means to nourish each other in hard times.

A tender, funny, fierce conversation about feminism, food, and finding yourself in community with music from the movement.

Nourish yourself.
