Neoliberal, authoritarian and fundamentalist politics haveall been consolidated in response to the pandemic to further attack the rights of womxn, migrants, informal workers, people of colour, indigenous communities, trans and gender non-conforming persons, among many others. Yet at the same time, we are witnessing widespread and deep community organizing and solidarity initiatives flourishing, led by womxn. When the system fails, people show up.

This webinar will explore feminist analyses of the crisis and the way the pandemic intersects with patriarchy, corporate power and a global division of labour that is both gendered and racialised. It will askhow the rise and collision of fascisms, fundamentalisms and capitalism has limited and predetermined our understanding and practices of democracy and governance. And whether it could also provide a window of opportunity to re-organize and shift power on an unprecedented scale. Whatcan we learn from the feminist practices and measures that are already being deployed to build radical democratic systems that genuinely care for the environment and our collective well-being?
