Aïcha Liviana Messina - Feminicide

In this episode of the EGS Podcast, Aïcha Liviana Messina discusses the notion of feminicide and the relation between language and violence. Liviana Messina argues that there is no specific language, no specific ear to stop us before the violent act. We can only traverse violence within the structure that makes it possible. It is linguistic structure; the one that makes violence occur in silence, but makes violence part of our silence. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.
