An important announcement: this will be FemRadio's LAST episode for the next little while, as the show heads into a month-long hiatus. But this is not the last you'll see - or hear - of us! More details follow in this episode, including how you can get involved in the production of FemRadio.

This week on FemRadio, we share an interview with Luna Li, a female-fronted indie rock band from Toronto. We hear from the band’s lead singer and songwriter, Hannah Bussiere, about the importance of representation for women of colour in music, fostering safe and inclusive spaces at local shows, and what we can expect from Luna Li's first full-length album.

And Zahraa and Robyn have your Canadian feminist news headlines, stuff we're digging this week (see: a fruit-picking initiative giving back to Toronto and finally reading a Margaret Atwood book), and much more!

Aired August 14, 2018
Produced by Zahraa Hmood and Robyn Simon.
