Bloody Woman: Lana Lopesi

Bloody Woman is a collection of essays by acclaimed writer and critic Dr Lana Lopesi which explores the overlap of being Sāmoan and a woman. Join us for a 60-minute online conversation between Lana and our Founder Makanaka about this wayfinding set of essays.

Guided by Lana’s’ essay “Teine Sā, My Feminist Icons” in Bloody Woman (2021) the intention of this conversation is to explore ancestral ideas of womanhood, Indigenous feminisms and the feminist icons that inform the worlds and practices of the daughters of migrants.
