Dr. Lina AbiRafeh

Joining us this week on the Radicals & Revolutionaries Lab is Dr. Lina AbiRafeh, a feminist, activist, accidental academic, and Executive Director of the Arab Institute for Women. Our host, Jillian Foster, speaks with Lina about being at the helm of the institute, working at the intersection of academia and activism. This episode digs into that and more as Lina shares her thoughts on the complexity of activism in Arab regions, what it would take to rebuild Beirut as a feminist city, the burden of our own security as women, and more. This conversation and Lina’s work leave us dreaming of the dawn of a different era– one in which women are entitled to all of the same freedoms that men have.Connect with Dr. Lina AbiRafeh:Instagram: @LinaAbiRafehTwitter: @LinaAbiRafehJoin our movement for radically authentic, intentional, interconnected feminism inside Continuum Collective.

Radicals & Revolutionaries Lab is an intersectional, international, and intergenerational podcast with feminist visionaries. Secrets are had and shared in conversation with revolutionaries and innovators engaged in distinctly unapologetic feminist work. The R&R Lab unearths those nuggets of truth hidden just under the surface, begging to be noticed. We dive deeply into animating questions at the center of our feminist life; exploring the complexity and nuance that emboldens our listeners to engage in new ways of seeing, defining, and being feminists.
