Against the Grain

How many intersections can you cram in one feminist?

Customer service: is run by John and Stacy

About the Author

Siobhan [“shiv-awn”] is an educator interested in examining the undeserved benefits dominant ideologies reap from being left unexamined. She is also a labour organizer, a reproductive justice advocate, and a former journalist who covered abuses of authority in policing and psychiatry.

 

Siobhan’s meatspace profile includes presentations at Edmonton’s BECA conference and regular appearances for the Alberta Sex Positive Education Community Centre. Her published work can also be found at VICE, the Edmonton Quotient, Shadowproof and The Establishment.

 

Decreasing world suck is the primary goal. Side effects may include bruising, gibbering, high fever, cracked desks, or cracked heads. Siobhan is not for everyone, consult your doctor before use.

 

She has a Twitter and wants to see your cats stuck in Tupperware.
