4: the ugliness of beauty — part 2
Manage episode 348652106 series 3402878
We continue our grand tour of the Ugliness of Beauty. This will be an ongoing series. Don't forget to listen to Part 1 first! In this episode we dive deeper into the paradoxes and ironies underlying Beauty and the role Beauty plays in upholding and normalizing systems of oppression.
Once again, I invite you to interrogate Beauty as a normalized social heirarchy, and move towards reimagining what Beauty (or something much better!) could be. I hope you enjoy this episode and if you do, leave a review and share it with someone special! I love you.
