Smashing the Matriarchy
Becca and Ryan discuss why they created the podcast. Then, the InterTREKtional away team beams down to two female-run planets and asks: Is this the future MRAs think feminists want? We discuss The Next Generation episode “Angel One” (S1:E14) and The Animated Series episode “The Lorelei Signal” (S1:E4). InterTREKtional is an exploration of Star Trek through an intersectional feminist lens. Intersectionality explores intersecting forms of oppression, and how they affect the experiences of individuals with compound identities, such as race, gender, class, religion, sexual orientation, and species.
