Panel 1: From Anger to Action: Collective Rage as Feminist Method
Speakers: Ilana Eloit, Danai Dimas, Kaziwa Raim-Rotzetter.
Time: 10:15-12:00. Location: Auditorium A1B, Maison de la paix.
This conversation traces how feminist rage has catalysed political, artistic, and grassroots movements across generations and geographies. Together, we want to explore how rage—often dismissed as unproductive or divisive—has instead fueled feminist organising, creativity, and care.
After the panel, participants are invited to join a lunch in Petal 2, organised by the initiatives. A selection of books on feminist topics will also be available for purchase, with a special 10% discount.
Panel 2: Rage Against Neglect: Feminist Health, Medicine & Survival
Speakers: Joelle Schwarz, Naomi Samake-Bäckert, Lynn Kohli, Betty Mukundi.
Time: 13:30-15:00. Location: Auditorium A1B, Maison de la paix.
This panel explores how feminist rage emerges from encounters with medical neglect, systemic ableism, and gendered or racialised healthcare disparities. We aim to bring together activists, patient advocates, scholars, and healthcare workers to reflect on how rage, often born in silence or suffering, can also be a powerful force for reform and solidarity.
Come as you are and bring your questions, your exhaustion, your fire. Let‘s transform it together.
