Het regent Bonte Was live podcasts! Ook in deze aflevering kan je luisteren naar een gesprek dat we live opnamen tijdens het OneWorld Festival. Dat deden we met Olave Basabose, senior medewerker communicatie bij internationaal vrouwenfonds Mama Cash. Met Olave praten we over inclusief taal- en beeldgebruik, iets waar ze in haar functie bij Mama Cash bewust mee bezig is.   Ook duiken we met Olave als non binaire trans femme in hoe er in de media over transgender personen wordt gesproken. Daarnaast spelen we een potje Hardnekkige Vlekkenkwartet waarin we laten zien hoe media de taal van de macht volgen bij een term als ‘ontwikkelingssamenwerking' en hoe schadelijk (en zelfs gevaarlijk) het kan zijn als media bevooroordeeld verslag doen van verhalen over trans personen.   Deze opname van Bonte Was werd mede mogelijk gemaakt door internationaal feministisch fonds Mama Cash.     *Lees hier Olaves stuk over correct taalgebruik over trans personen: https://www.oneworld.nl/identiteit/transvrouwen-bestaan-niet-trans-vrouwen-wel/   *Dit is het artikel van Belgische krant De Standaard over onderzoek naar de medische behandeling van trans jongeren: https://archive.ph/QpWiv   *Dit is het iets genuanceerdere stuk van het NRC over datzelfde onderwerp: https://archive.ph/2023.01.27-100135/https://www.nrc.nl/nieuws/2023/01/27/zijn-de-twijfels-over-puberteitsremmers-voor-transgenderjongeren-terecht-a4155289   Heb jij zelf voorbeelden van missers of opstekers in de media, volg ons dan op www.instagram.com/bontewaspodcast en geef ze daar aan ons door.   Word vriend van onze podcast door eenmalig of vaker te doneren via www.vriendvandeshow.nl/bontewaspodcast.

Devin: What do you think of as your superpower?Ben: I think I had a really interesting experience coming out of college. I grew up in, you know, upper-middle-class suburbs in New York of New York City. Then after college, my first job I got by happenstance was as an intern for the National Office of the NAACP. I was often the only white person in the room, which is just not an experience that I think a lot of my peers have ever had. I don’t know how to translate that into a superpower, but I think a level of empathy, a level of humility, understanding that while I have some great ideas, they’re just ideas.Devin: Meg, what do you think of as your superpower?Meg: I’m going to also say empathy, but I have a different life experience than Ben. I mean it in a slightly different way. I see my superpower as having the ability to help people tell their stories.Ben Wrobel, director of communications at Village Capital, and Meg Massey, a freelance journalist, have partnered to author a seminal new work called Letting Go: How Philanthropists and Impact Investors Can Do More Good by Giving Up Control.Meg summarizes the book succinctly: “We talk about how funders can and should integrate the people that they’re hoping to serve and support with their funding into the decision-making process.”There are two distinct audiences for the book, philanthropists and impact investors. While many do both, the two activities are treated mainly as two separate disciplines. Ben notes that the authors struggled about whether to include both but did because “a lot of the general principles are the same.”Village Capital is known for its unusual funding model. Ben explains:The model we have is called peer-selected investment, and we bring together 12 entrepreneurs that are working in the same sector, but not direct competitors. Twelve African entrepreneurs working on fintech, for instance. We put them through a training investment readiness program. Everyone gets a benefit out of it. But at the end of the program, the group engages in this very open, transparent ranking process and ultimately selects two of their peers to receive funding from our fund. Village Capital was formed to address a related problem in the venture capital community. “The reason village capital was created by Ross Baird and others early, early on was because venture capital, they argued, was a very closed off hegemonic sphere where a few people in a few cities are making decisions about our collective future,” Ben says.He notes, however, that Village Capital’s approach is different from the model he and Meg document in the book. “The mechanics of it are more about asking social entrepreneurs to make decisions rather than, let’s say, people living in a specific community or people with disabilities like we’ve seen with some other participatory funding models.” Meg notes that this has been a blind spot for impact investors. “Impact Investing has largely been about what you’re investing in and not how you’re doing it, that process. And there’s a lot of top-down.”The nonprofit arena has a similar problem, Ben says. “Philanthropy is largely male, largely white, largely based in a few places. Any sort of funding model where the people making decisions aren’t necessarily representative of the world at large is where participatory funding can be helpful.”Participating can be difficult, Meg notes. “If you haven’t taken the economics class, if you haven’t worked at a bank or just had any professional experience in finance, something—‘cap size,’ ‘market share’—like these are normal terms for investors, but they can be really intimidating to people who aren’t part—who don’t live and breathe that work.”Meg and Ben connected at the GIIN conference for impact investors in Amsterdam. Together, they saw a problem. “There’s a panel on support in sub-Saharan Africa that’s like five white guys from Europe,” Meg says.The book set out a nine rung ladder investors and philanthropists can climb to move from traditional to fully participatory models. Ben summarizes the process as three key steps.“At the very bottom there, you have a process that’s not participatory; it’s you simply make a decision and then move on with your life,” Ben says.“Up in the middle of the ladder is what we call consulting,” Ben explains. “Sometimes at its worst, it’s maybe token listening where you’re saying, ‘Hey, we’re going to hold a community meeting. We’re going to invite folks to join a zoom and weigh in on our investment strategy.’ But ultimately, there are no teeth to that.”“The top rung is true participation, and really the distinction there goes beyond listening,” Ben says. “It means that there is a mechanism in place for community members, for people who have lived experience to have a vote. In its purest form, it’s going to be a decision about who you invest in.”Meg provided an example. Mama Cash is a grantmaking organization that transitioned to becoming fully participatory. “They found that their staff, rather than kind of being grant analysts and making all these decisions, were facilitating the process of having their current and former grantees review applications and vote. They were given this role, and they were also trained in how to do it.” The participatory approach is snowballing, Meg says. “Ben and I were interviewing different participatory grantmakers around the world. They started a Google Group, which then turned into a Slack community, which went from those dozen people, now over seven hundred members around the world.”Empathy is a superpower both Meg and Ben use to enable their work.Superpowers for Good is a reader-supported publication. To support my work, consider becoming a paid subscriber.How You Can Develop Empathy As a SuperpowerBen sees empathy as being a radical step for investors and grantmakers. I think participatory grant-making and participatory investing, whether it's on the institutional level or on the personal level, is it's a really radical action to take. I mean, we try not to frame it as radical because, at the end of the day, it is just grant-making. It's not rocket science. But the empathy part of it is radical.Doing participatory funding “is a radical act of empathy,” he adds.Ben sees a foundational problem in his peer group. A lot of young people have the idea of wanting to save the world. There's a problem out there. It can be solved. And if it can be solved, it can be solved by the power of your own intellect. Just like a homework assignment at a liberal arts college, right? It's the perfect attitude for a generation raised on the like the optimism of the “West Wing” and the clean logic of “Freakonomics.”Ben sees this as arrogance that can impede finding more effective solutions, something he now recognizes in himself. “I’ll suddenly just get really into [a solution to a problem] and push and say, ‘This is what we need to be doing. This is it. Let’s go for it.’ And I forget that five days before, I knew nothing about this topic and still only have a third-hand understanding of it.”Humility and empathy enable a more inclusive approach that puts decision-making closer to the beneficiaries.Meg uses her empathy superpower to help other people tell better stories. She offers some storytelling advice. “You always have a beginning, middle and end, which seems obvious. You’d be surprised at how many stories are missing one of those components.”Then she notes that building tension is a critical element of a story. “What keeps us reading thrillers or watching TV shows is they build up what’s going to happen.”“The best writers for television, they’ve mastered managing that tension,” she adds.Grantwriters face significant challenges today. One complained to Meg about the labor-intensive forms and seemingly irrelevant questions. “We don’t speak the same language.”“Storytelling is a universal language,” Meg says.If you work at implementing steps to activate your empathy, like Meg and Ben, you can make it a superpower that can influence every other skill you have, enabling you to have more significant impact.

Muuuy buenas DESEABLES, aquí tenéis a vuestra disposición una nueva entrega de nuestras desventuras por el fantástico mundo de las Leyendas Urbanas y a cada paso que damos la locura va en aumento.

In the thirty-first episode, Emily Collins-Ellis and Rachel Stephenson Sheff speak with zohra moosa - Executive Director of Mama Cash - about all things related to feminism, fundraising and activism. In 1983, Mama Cash became the first international women’s fund; what began as a small-scale - but incredibly visionary - initiative of five lesbian feminists around a kitchen table in Amsterdam, has since grown into one of the largest public funds that supports the rights of women, girls, trans people and intersex people around the world. Their slogan “Because Feminist Activism Works” says it all - Mama Cash mobilises resources from individuals and institutions, and makes grants to self-led, feminist organisations around the world. Mama Cash also helps to build the partnerships and networks needed to successfully defend and advance their rights. zohra is a passionate feminist activist who has been working with Mama Cash since 2013, and she is also the co-host of Mama Cash’s brilliant podcast, Tea With Mama Cash, which we highly recommend. She shares so much brilliant advice on this episode, and it must be said - gives the best answer to the ultimate speed round question: Beyoncé or Destiny's Child?

What is the difference between equality and justice? What are the best places to start change? These are a few topics we touch upon with our guest Amanda Gigler who is leading the development of Mama Cash (the feminist non-profit fund from Amsterdam) next 10 year strategic guide. We dive into the differences between feminism, activism and social change and discuss (among other things) the importance of creating narrative for change. LINKSMamaCash“Permaculture design” by Aranya“Dispossessed” by Ursula de Guin

We all love clothes, let's Remember Who Made Them. This is the first of a two-part episode where we delve into how garment workers are organising, what is organising and why is collective action important. So often, workers are only cast as victims - we want to make sure to tell the story of how they are leading the way to justice. We start with Swatee, who interviews Monika from the Solidarity Centre to understand what organising actually is, a few stories of what successful organising looks like and what a consumer’s role is. Then we hear a bit of the activist journey of Chamila, leader of the Dabindu Collective, a garment workers collective in Sri Lanka. From there, Devi speaks with Annanya, from the Asia Floor Wage Alliance, who explains the connections between the individual worker, to the union, to the regional alliance, to the global movement to transform the future of fashion. Stay tuned for Part 2 of how actions make movements, when we speak to more organisers and their allies from other countries.

These are special areas in a country that provide special benefits, such as less restrictions, no taxes and no customs, for enterprises with them. They are designed as an incentive for foreign companies and to encourage overall economic trade. Chamila also refers to the CID, which is the Central Intelligence Directorate - the main intelligence and security agency in Sri Lanka.More on Asia Floor Wage Alliance: https://asia.floorwage.org/More on Anannya: https://www.opendemocracy.net/en/beyond-trafficking-and-slavery/portrait-of-indian-labour-activist/More from Annanya on North-South solidarity: https://www.opendemocracy.net/en/beyond-trafficking-and-slavery/regional-organising-and-struggle-to-set-asia-floor-wage/This documentary on Living Wages and what it means to fight for them: https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=18&v=zsR87lFmE6Y&feature=emb_logoWith thanks to those that read the translations in English: Sakuthala Mapa (for Chamila) and to Global Fund for Women and Mama Cash who facilitated introductions to Solidarity Centre and Annanya Bhattacharjee.

This six part miniseries is based on the conference The Roadmap to Equality In The Arts that took place 18 January 2020 and dealt with the undeniable under- and misrepresentation of women artists, Women of Colour, non-binary and genderqueer artists in the Dutch art world. With performances, keynotes, presentations and panels the conference attempted to establish stepping-stones on the path to gender equality in the arts by raising awareness, gathering data and mobilising existing networks and collective knowledge.   The second episode deals with the lack of overview of the situation in the visual arts in the Netherlands in terms of data and the critical situation in Dutch museum spaces with regards to representation. It features Agnès Saal of the French Ministry of Culture on data monitoring and evaluation as the only way to influence policies, Galit Eilat on her pioneering research into the collection of the Van Abbemuseum and Pauline Salet on her research into the percentage of female artists in eight Dutch museums initiated by Mama Cash. It also touches upon the downsides of collecting quantitative data and the importance of qualitative research through collecting subjective stories.   Links:   The Equality Roadmap in Culture https://www.culture.gouv.fr/Sites-thematiques/Egalite-et-diversite/Les-engagements-du-Ministere/Feuille-de-route-Egalite-2019-2022).   Research Mama Cash: https://www.mamacash.org/media/documents/the_position_of_women_artists_in_four_art_disciplines_in_the_netherlands__mama_cash_2019.pdf).   References to literature can be found via the websites https://atria.nl/ and https://www.boekman.nl.   For the results of the ArtEZ BEAR survey, see: https://studiumgenerale.artez.nl/nl/studies/all/blog/survey+bear+alumni+2014+2018/   If you want to be involved in the workgroup, please contact: Catelijne de Muijnck (ArtEZ studium generale) c.demuijnck@artez.nl Dephine Bedel (Meta/Books) mailing@delphinebedel.com Els Cornelis evkcornelis@gmail.com

Deze aflevering is gesponsord door de Ribbius Peletier-penning.We moeten het even hebben over vrouwen in de politiek. Vorig jaar hebben Provinciale Staten een onderscheiding ingesteld voor een vrouw die veel heeft betekend voor de positie van vrouwen in de politiek in Noord-Holland: de Ribbius Peletier-penning. Op 6 maart wordt bekend welke vrouw dit jaar die penning krijgt. Vorig jaar won Devika Partiman: oprichter van Stem op een vrouw. We bellen even met haar om te vragen hoe het staat met haar wereldverovering. Verder hebben we juryleden Elske Doets en Liza Mügge te gast. De een, Elske, werd verkozen tot zakenvrouw van het jaar in 2017 en zette de Young Lady Business Academy op waarmee ze een stimulerende omgeving creëert voor jonge meiden en vrouwen om talenten te ontdekken en vervolgens uit te kunnen blinken in het bedrijfsleven of de politiek. De ander, Liza, is hoofddocent politicologie aan de UvA met als expertise politieke vertegenwoordiging en diversiteit, gender en politiek. Met hen praten we over hoe het ervoor staat met de man/vrouw-verdeling in de politiek, wanneer we nou eindelijk een vrouwelijke minister-president krijgen en wat het belang is van rolmodellen. Wij kregen spontaan zin een gooi te doen naar het minister-presidentschap.

As anarchist activist Emma Goldman (1865-1940) said: If I can't dance, I don't want to be part of your revolution. Conceptualised in Nairobi, Kenya by multidisciplinary arts collective The Nest, Strictly Silk is a party for and by women and non-binary people. And on March 7th, the first international edition of Strictly Silk will take place on at Radio Radio in Amsterdam to kick off the Mama Cash Feminist Festival! We took the opportunity to speak to two of its founding members, Njeri Gitungo and Dr. Akati Khasiani, about the relationship between the arts and activism, how and why Strictly Silk got its start, and why women and queer folk reclaiming the dance floor is a feminist act.

Even within feminist spaces, the regulation of sex work is a contested topic. So for this International Day to End Violence Against Sex Workers, we invited two sex workers' rights activists to join us on the podcast: Velvet December, Advocacy Coordinator for Dutch sex workers' union PROUD, and Vera Rodriguez, Programme Associate at international fund for sex workers' rights activists the Red Umbrella Fund. We unpacked about how sex work intersects with capitalism and patriarchy, recent developments in legislation and activism around the world, and what sex workers themselves want (hint: it's not the Nordic model).

Climate change is one of the most urgent issues of our times, and fortunately it has gained the mainstream attention it deserves. But one important element is missing from the conversation. To create a sustainable future for all, we need to talk about gender and climate change. In this episode of Tea with Mama Cash, hosted by our Executive Director Mama Cash and our Programme Officer for Environmental Justice Erika Mandreza Sales, we dive into the sexist impact of climate change, and other hierarchies that influence who is making decisions that affect all of us, and who is most affected.

“Whoever convinced us that we are consumers? We are earthlings.” On this episode of Tea with Mama Cash, hosts Zohra and Happy - along with our first ever guest (!), Chihiro Geuzebroek of Climate Liberation Bloc - tackle the question that many of us keep returning to: what do we do with the contradictions that emerge between our politics and our personal lifestyle choices? From plastic straws and public transport to makeup and diapers - how much do the choices we make about how and what we consume matter in the big picture?

"Abortion rights, sexuality rights, sex work, all of it… we can talk about the way women’s bodies are used in an ideological battle that is patriarchy vs feminism, but I still come back to the idea that we would only know truly that we were free if we would feel it in our bodies, no matter what words are coming out of our mouths." Earlier this month we launched the international campaign #MyBodyIsMine. And in this episode of Tea with Mama Cash, Zohra and Happy unpack that seemingly simple statement. Why is the body such a feminist issue in the first place? How do bodies play a role in the activism of women, girls, trans and intersex people? And in what way can we use our bodies to practice solidarity? All this and more, so tune in for the tea! Do you want to join the campaign, and make your own statement? Then head to www.mybodyismine.com to watch the video portraits of eight inspiring activists, read the stories that have already been shared, and get your own temporary #MyBodyIsMine tattoo.

Baby Mama Cash tells her beautiful birth story.

Happy is cringing, but that's exactly why this time on Tea with Mama Cash we're talking about BLOOD. Our Executive Director Zohra Moosa and Director of Programmes Happy Mwende Kinyili unpack the shame around menstrual bleeding, discuss the tampon tax, debate menstrual cups, and take a look at feminist activism re: menstruation around the world. Plus: tune in to learn why Zohra's pet peeve is the phrase ‘menstrual hygiene’ and why, as Happy explains, that’s related to - yep, you guessed it - colonialism. Like what you hear?

Three words, eight letters: on this episode of Tea with Mama Cash we're talking about that big, small word: l-o-v-e. Not just the romantic kind, but in all it's many-splendored forms, like care, and community, and family. Our Executive Director Zohra Moosa and Director of Programmes Happy Mwende Kinyili look at how all the different kinds of relationships in our lives can be sites of both struggle and liberation: why are we so hung up on biology or ‘blood’? What would happen if we stopped treating love like property? How would friendship change our feminist practices? Tune in for the tea on polyamory, chosen families, and female friendships.

What do history books, the gender binary, and the language we use in this podcast have in common? As our Executive Director Zohra Moosa and Director of Programmes Happy Mwende Kinyili explore in this episode of Tea with Mama Cash, colonialism is not limited to the past, but a force that continues to shape our present - even our feminist movements. Tune in for a conversation about why decolonisation is a feminist project, how coloniality plays out within activism, development and aid, and what Mama Cash is doing differently.

Louise van Deth werd geboren in 1956. Ze bezocht het Stedelijk Gymnasium in Haarlem. Daarna volgde een indrukwekkende opeenvolging aan studies: eerst een aantal jaren theologie. Daarna behaalde ze in de Verenigde Staten haar Bachelor?s in Economie en Klassieke Talen, en óók nog eens een MBA aan Tuck Business School in New Hampshire. Van Deth begon haar professionele loopbaan bij zakenbank Pierson, Heldring & Pierson, maar besloot na vijf jaar weer verder te studeren, Engelse literatuur ditmaal. Op haar 40ste maakte Van Deth de switch naar de goede doelen sector en werkte voor het Centraal Bureau Fondsenwerving en Stichting Natuur en Milieu. Ze heeft verschillende bestuursfuncties bekleed, zoals bij Mama Cash, waar ze vijftien jaar penningmeester was. Sinds tien jaar is zij directeur van het Aidsfonds ? Soa Aids Nederland. Naast haar drukke baan houdt Van Deth soms tijd over voor paardrijden, tennis èn concertbezoek. Daarnaast is zij onder andere lid van de Raad van Toezicht van het Nationaal Muziekinstrumentenfonds.

As our Executive Director Zohra Moosa notes, a lot of her job is about trying to get people to become feminists; to practice feminism. But what does it actually mean when everyone starts calling themselves feminists? As she asks: “Am I hugely persuasive, or is this a disaster?” In the third episode of Tea with Mama Cash, hosts Zohra Moosa and Director of Programmes Happy Mwende Kinyili talk global solidarity in relation to the rise of pop feminism. How global is this trend really? And what effects is it having (or not) for feminist activists in different contexts? Do you think that the more people call themselves feminists, the better? Or do you agree with Happy, who says calling yourself a feminist “means you have to do thing in a certain way, you have to make decisions in a certain way, you have to be about fundamentally shifting power”?

In the second episode of Tea with Mama Cash, hosts Zohra Moosa and Happy Mwende Kinyili tackle the million-dollar question: will the revolution be funded? Zohra and Happy explore the ways activists can engage with money from a feminist perspective, including Mama Cash’s origin story. Is money a tool for creating lasting, transformational social change, or will it always be the master’s tool?

Op 8 maart was het Internationale Vrouwendag en dat moest uiteraard gevierd worden in een volle zaal met vrouwen in Tivoli Vredenburg Utrecht! In samenwerking met Mama Cash organiseerden wij een Live show tijdens het Mama Cash Feminist Festival.In de “Let’s talk about S.E.X.” live show bespreken we gender, seksualiteit en racisme. Nog steeds hangt er rondom vrouwen en seks een sfeer van taboe, schaamte en onderdrukking. Welke rol spelen diverse culturele aannames hierin? Wat is ‘normaal’? Wat betekent #MeToo voor vrouwen en in het bijzonder voor vrouwen van kleur? Is het tijd voor een nieuwe seksuele revolutie van de vrouw? En is die hetzelfde voor alle vrouwen ongeacht afkomst?We bespreken deze onderwerpen met onze tafeldame van de avond, niemand minder dan Nancy Jouwe, die achtergrond informatie gaf en context (let op ze is geen nummertjes fetishist). In het deel over alledaags seksisme schoven Olave Basabose en Rowan Blijd aan om het te hebben over seksualiteit en racisme. Zij gaven hun ongezouten mening en scherpe inzichten. In het laatste deel schoven Hadjar Benmiloud en Ibtissam Abaâziz aan en bespraken seksisme in media, Islamofobie en het geweld tegen moslimvrouwen.Live muziek werd verzorg door Khadija Massaoudi & dj’s van de avond waren dj Yasmin en dj Emma.Luister naar aflevering 22!ShownotesChaos Creëert RuimteFilosoof Grâce Ndjako recenseert Achille MbembeZaïre Krieger doet verslag van The Black VoteNemen we LHBTQIAP+ jongeren genoeg in bescherming?

In de tweede aflevering van De Schemerzone gaan we in gesprek met schrijver en feministe Sophia Seawell.

This week, we bring you our conversation with Zohra Moosa, the Executive Director of Mama Cash, an organization that supports the financial prospects of women, girls, trans and intersex people around the world who fight for their human rights. Mama Cash was conceived around a kitchen table in Amsterdam in 1983. Since then, they have grown from a group of five feminist activists into an international fund that supports women’s, girls’ and trans people’s movements around the world. As a brown, queer, Desi migrant, Zohra talks to us about intersectional feminism and the work she does with Mama Cash to support feminist causes around the world.
