What do you get when you use feminist values to conquer climate change and end the exploitation of the Third World?

Transnational Ecofeminism, perhaps?

Listen in on a conversation with two University of Connecticut Sociologists. Dr. Phoebe Godfrey is a professor and performance artist whose work and art addresses issues concerning race, gender, and class. Dr. Manisha Desai specializes in Transnational Feminism, Globalization, Human Rights, and South Asian American Issues. She is also the Director of the Women's Studies program at the University of Connecticut. Both participated in the University of Connecticut Women's Studies Conference, Ecofeminism in a Transnational World, which took place the weekend following this broadcast.

Broadcast on 3/20/09.
