You have experienced it on an empty street at night, on a crowded bus, at work, in worship centers, lecture halls, or even at parties. You felt it when you doubted yourself; when you stopped yourself from taking that walk at night; when you feared the force of your own desire, obsessed about how you look, or let the fear of financial death trap you in a bad relationship. This is the Female Fear Factory.
Female Fear Factory: The Podcast is inspired by the ground-breaking book, Female Fear Factory: Unravelling Patriarchy’s Cultures of Violence by award-winning author and renowned feminist scholar, Professor Pumla Dineo Gqola. The Female Fear Factory speaks to the different ways in which the patriarchy produces fear in people socialised as female globally. Gathering first-hand stories about females’ experience of fear, this podcast highlights the reality of how fear is nurtured within them, how it has shaped their lives, and how they are breaking free from it. For this podcast series, we have put together a line-up of diverse personalities, professions, and nationalities to represent the myriad of experiences across the globe. We hear from the author herself, Pumla Dineo Gqola, Chitra Nagarajan, Natalia Molebatsi and more.
Join us as we go from South Africa to Sri Lanka, India to Iran and learn the many ways that the patriarchal fear factory manifests across culture, generation, religion, and location.

For twenty-five years Kevin Boniface has been writing succinct descriptions of events and incidents that have taken place whilst out and about on his postal round, his daily route taking him from the main sorting office to the streets and outlying neighbourhoods above the town. In these commentaries and records nothing seems to be typical—engaged and disconnected conversations, the observed and the overheard—the everyday activity of life on the move.

Diese kleine Schrift ist eine grosse Kriegserklärung; und was das Aushorchen von Götzen anbetrifft, so sind es dies Mal keine Zeitgötzen, sondern ewige Götzen, an die hier mit dem Hammer wie mit einer Stimmgabel gerührt wird, – es giebt überhaupt keine älteren, keine überzeugteren, keine aufgeblaseneren Götzen… Auch keine hohleren… Das hindert nicht, dass sie die geglaubtesten sind; auch sagt man, zumal im vornehmsten Falle, durchaus nicht Götze…(aus Friedrich Nietzsches Vorwort zur Götzendämmerung)

Michel de Montaigne was a contemporary of Shakespeare who, after having played his part in France's terrible wars of religion, retired to his estates and decided to write about what he knew best--himself. And so in his likes and dislikes, his reflections on history, his loves and his travels, he brought to life, not just one man, but all human experience. "What do I know?" he asked. If not himself and his own soul, then nothing else.
