The Feminist Lens

Join Peris and Nina in a whirl wind conversation with lawyer, activist, and Marie Claire 2020 Future Shaper Deeba Syed. From Rights of Women Sexual Harassment helpline, to Raising awareness around Domestic Abuse during lockdown, to Michaela Cole’s I May Destroy you, Cardi B and Meghan the Stallion’s WAP, Black Lives Matter and Why Labour still hasn’t had a Women Leader – we chatted to Deeba about A LOT and we would’ve spoken to her all day, all week if we could! I hope this conversation gives you some good ideas, and spurs you on. Deeba’s wealth of knowledge and experience in fighting for women's rights is systemic and personal, she is a role model for many women and we wanted to platform her knowledge and inspire more young women to fight for what they believe is right.

Join Nina and Peris interview the incredible feature and investigative journalist and digital outreach Director for @gijn and @dartcenter Rossalyn Warren and award winning videographer and photographer Remi Bumstead.  We asked Rossalyn and Remi how they would change the world through 'The Feminist Lens', which is what their film 'Diwata' in many ways, represents.  What is 'Diwata' about: 'Mining companies are destroying large parts of ancient forest. However on the island of Palawan in the Philippines a small group of women are standing up against these big companies and protecting the forests and the spirit that lives within them; Diwata.' Diwata is available to view on: Films for Action  Amazon  Follow/support Rossalyn Warren's work:  https://twitter.com/RossalynWarren  https://rossalynwarren.com/  Follow/support Remi Bumstead's work:  https://linktr.ee/Remibum Info@remibumstead.com Call to Action:  https://www.voanews.com/east-asia/philippine-activists-call-end-foreign-mining https://wrm.org.uy/fr/les-articles-du-bulletin-wrm/section5/philippines-a-call-to-stop-mining-in-palawan/  https://www.rainforest-rescue.org/petitions/1215/keep-plantations-out-of-palawan-forest
