Summary

This season, we’ve featured some of the many incredible women doing the work of protecting women in a hostile world. For our final episode of the season, we’re spotlighting one of our own: our fearless host and leader, Christian F. Nunes. Though her tenure as NOW National President is drawing to a close, her advocacy is far from over. In this episode, Christian and senior producer Bethany Brookshire sit down together to reflect on four seasons of this podcast, its many insightful guests, and what the future of feminist solidarity really looks like in the face of mounting anti-feminist backlash. We’re all in need of a little extra feminist inspiration right now, so why not check out some of our past episodes?
