I noticed someone posting about movies. Weve got a lot of mainstream bollywood-based material and writings on how women are objectified/how their stories arent told etc. I thought Id share my small write up about how Tamil movies deal with women. valerievampire.blogspot.in/2012/10/subtle-rape.html (old but still valid. I criticize Rajinikanth as well.) I was thinking we could do something similar for Telugu. Possibly, go watch a new Telugu movie (engage, boo, cheer as a collective feminist audience); create written or video material that criticizes/reviews the movie from a feminist perspective. The subject matter is something that people like and will understand, hence making feminism more accessible and understandable. Even a statistical analysis of the total time you saw a woman in a Telugu movie in 2013 would be hard hitting (Basic Bechdel test, anyone?)
