Hello Feminist Twitter! We're new here. We are the 'Feminist Policy Project' - a recently established research venture (based in School of Social & Political Science Edinburgh) that critiques & rewrites UK social policy, from a feminist perspective! You can learn more here: sps.ed.ac.uk/research/resea…

The steady erosion of civil liberties in ‘liberal democracies’ demonstrates the need for progressive (eg anti-racist, trans-inclusive) feminist perspectives at all levels of the state.

"in the face of whatever monstrous bullshit, find your people, do good work at whatever scale you can, and find ways to share that out, so that it hopefully connects to many others also doing the same. This is how we will get through. This is how it gets better."

The final lecture of the inaugural 'Deep Dive' reading event is taking place this Friday! Come along to hear Moya Lloyd talk about Butler and their work! eventbrite.co.uk/e/thinking-wit…

We had a very productive in-person Soundings today - lots of generative chat. Looking forward to the digital Soundings on 7th September. And then the work really begins!

Earlier this week, we asked academic feminists to identify the feminist policies they'd enact through central gov, if they could. Choices incl. prison abolition, free 24 hour childcare, gender neutral toilets in schools & bike lanes! What feminist policy would *you* enact?
