Here is a link to the Shameless Magazine's Blog! It's got a lot of fun and interesting stuff, just like their magazine.
This link will take you to the blog, specifically the post by Miss G__'s Jenna. It's titled, "The Future of Feminism?" and discusses an article by Barbara Kay of the National Post and her (and other media's) wrongful use and portrayal of feminism. Jenna's post also points out the problem of gender-based violence and the lack of media attention it receives. Jenna cites an article written by Miss G__'s Sarah Ghabrial called "The Memory of Aqsa Parvez and the Future of Feminism". Ghabrial's article dismantles xenophobic arguments made by a flood of media last year using the case of one young woman of colour in Toronto who was murdered by her father. Jenna's post on the Shameless blog will also link you up to Sarah Ghabrial's article.
Feel free to comment on either article and on our blog here if you have something you want to get off your chest!
