data.entry.eventDescription = Feminist myth-making can take many forms – from subverting conventional gender roles in the stories handed down to us, to giving voice to the silenced, to the building of entire worlds in which new mythological systems reinvent the possibilities of personal identity. The current political landscape has seen public figures such as Jordan Peterson invoke mythology to shore up tradition and stoke nativist and misogynistic sentiments. What new stories can feminist myth-making offer to help create a habitable future? Panelist on the day include authors Maria Dahvana Headley (The Mere Wife), Sophie Mackintosh (The Water Cure), and Preti Taneja (We That Are Young). The event will be chaired by So Mayer.
