Protecting Women in a Hostile World

Feminism NOW is back for season 4! A lot has happened in the few weeks since our last episode. Women’s rights are actively being stripped away as the second Trump administration has quickly taken action to dismantle decades of feminist progress.

Feminism NOW is here to help you navigate these unprecedented times. Our theme for season 4 is “Protecting women in a hostile world.” In our premiere episode of the season, NOW’s National President Christian F. Nunes is joined by V (formerly Eve Ensler), author of The Vagina Monologues and founder of V-Day and One Billion Rising, to discuss how we can all build effective social movements that ensure not just our safety, but our collective liberation.

Guest: V (formerly Eve Ensler) is the Tony award-winning playwright, author, and activist. Her play The Vagina Monologues is an Obie award-winning, Olivier-nominated theatrical phenomenon that has been translated into 48 languages and performed in 140 countries. She is the author of numerous books and the founder of V-Day, the 27-year-old global activist movement that has raised over 120 million dollars to end violence against women, gender-expansive people, girls, and the planet—and founder of One Billion Rising, the largest global mass action to end gender-based violence in over 200 countries, as well as a co-founder of the City of Joy.
