Our online event 'Beyond the failures of liberal #feminism' is now under way. @moveincircles stresses the fact that if you only focus on freedom, you miss on the aspect of dependency that exists in motherhood, which is caring for another. #postliberalfeminism

.@moveincircles 'There is something wrong with worshipping freedom and calling it #feminism'

Nina Power argues that an increasing number of women are politically dispossessed, with parties across the spectrum, and especially on the left, only contributing to the problem, rather than trying to solve it #postliberalfeminism

Nina Power 'What happened on the left in the past few years has been shocking. Participation of women is dependent on agreeing with leftist men, and this is a jolting experience.' #postliberalfeminism

.@NimkoAli 'We are reduced to menstruators and this is problematic here in the West, but in Africa this leads to killings of women' #postliberalfeminism

.@NimkoAli 'It has become offensive to talk about girlhood. We need to deconstruct the way we look at aid, as it has a colonial approach' #postliberalfeminism

.@Docstockk 'Academic #feminism in the US and in the UK is neither feminist, nor it is particularly academic' #postliberalfeminism

.@Docstockk 'As academics have started thinking themselves as social constructivists, ideas have become dogmas.' #postliberalfeminism
