Her work, Living a Feminist Life, her work on Complaint, and her bold and powerful blog, Feminist Killjoys, taught me so much about how institutions functioned and helped me understand my experiences in the academy.In this conversation, Sara and I talk about the book, but also talk about the aunties in her life and many other things.
