The Radical Notion

A Feminist Journal This not-for-profit magazine is run by an all-women collective of radical and socialist feminists.

We are committed to the materialist analysis of sex-based oppression, and to challenging the material and symbolic structures of male dominance. We welcome words and images from women of all nationalities, classes, ethnicities and backgrounds to illuminate the meaning of feminist politics in their lives, and to create a global picture of this political moment.

Life is change. Over the last couple of years global events have led to increasing printing and distribution costs, and many members of the TRN collective have experienced major life changes that make large demands on our time.

With much pride and some heartache, we have therefore decided that Issue 12 will be our final *print* issue of TRN. You can read our full statement here: https://theradicalnotion.org/announcement

You may also find more detail in issue ll and our newsletter, but the main facts are these:

We will be closing subscriptions. If you do want a subscription for Issue 11 and 12 you must subscribe *before tomorrow at 5pm.* Please visit the shop linked below.

After tomorrow you can buy Issue 11 as a single issue, and you will be able to preorder Issue 12 as a single issue.

The shop will close early in 2025. If you want to get yourself previous issues of the magazine, please do take advantage of our back issues sale while you still can. theradicalnotion.org/shop

We hope for TRN to return in a new form and with a new focus and team in the fall of 2025. Between now and then, a core group will be working to prepare that new project.

These 12 issues have laid the groundwork we think now best served by spreading this body of work and new content farther and building deeper connections among feminist projects globally.

Please sign up for our newsletter to get news of progress and opportunities as we dream and build. https://bshg-zcglf.maillist-manage.com/ua/Optin?od=11287ecc4c6670&zx=1306aaa21&sD=1f77099c5e5c5e41

We have been honoured to share your voices and solidarity these four years. Your support and care have helped us weather and celebrate this work.

ISSUE 11 Borders & Boundaries Samples are up!
https://theradicalnotion.org/table-of-contents

Feminist thought on relationality is powerful for examining the double face of the border. How do borders protect against and/or enable mistreatment of women. Liberation is the process of shifting and reestablishing social boundaries.

Jane Clare Jones on r**e in war, women’s bodies as ciphers in men’s territorial contests in “stark mixture of the symbolic and the materially genocidal.” +

Victoria Gugenheim on the decorated body as boundary, as celebration of female being, and as site of reclamation and healing after trauma. “Colour, life, vitality and joy…they belong to us.”

Ugandan Le****ns in exile as refugees from anti-LGB laws speak to Rose Rickford and ask us to be their voices in the world, and to send support via Kakuma campaign as their daily situation is desperate.

RE: Framing Radical Feminism: The Yamnaya Did It: What I really really want is a cahoot of rich women get together and fund a Tutankamen’s-Tomb-style world tour of the Goddess Culture so generously curated and smartly interactive that it simply blows people’s minds open. Best if done while some of the founding experts in this research are still alive.

This magazine aims to hold space for resistance. To create new narratives to replace the old ones. To affirm the importance of listening to women. Valuing our knowledge. Reading it, learning it, speaking it. Passing it on. https://theradicalnotion.org/table-of-contents/

I think that's the other thing that happens to women is that a lot of the time they're told it doesn't really matter. It doesn't matter that you didn't breastfeed. It's fine. It doesn't matter that you didn't have that natural birth, that you want to forget about it and they go "Oooh, you're right," you know, "it doesn't really matter." But it does matter because age 80 they're still talking to you about it in their retirement home. #BreastFeeding #MaternityCare #BirthTrauma #PositiveBirth
