Glitch Feminism: A Manifesto by Legacy Russell
informative
medium-paced
2.5
Highly quotable fourth-wave feminism that wants each of us (especially non-white, non-male bodies) to occupy digital space as a means of disrupting binary gender images and imaginaries. In order to make the body as abstract as it is before it is named and therefore controlled, glitch feminists are supposed to live in the error, the buffering that the computer needs to try and make sense of the multiple selves that we inhabit in virtuality and that are all of us at once.
You know, it's nice to say these things. It's very interesting to see how artistic practices excel in these feminist imperatives. But what am I supposed to do with it? I'm still very confused about what fourth-wave feminism means for everyday life.
