The third wave of feminism, ushered in during the 90s by activists like Rebecca Walker, existed alongside the explosion of the internet, the creation of blogs, and the invention of digital social media.
The digitization of information largely means the democratization of info in Western countries, where citizens have access to the internet via public and private institutions, but it also means corporations and institutions can exploit these ideas for money, seeing as these ideas (due to social media and the internet) now have larger followings. Lots of ideologies have been watered down and exploited for profit in the last decade.
Feminismâs been exploited by capitalist industries, no doubt.
Young teens, third (some argue fourth, who knows anymore? boundaries between the two and between generation z and millennials are murky and constantly fought over) wave feminists, can now explore sexism and misogyny via their Twitter timeline or a graphic posted to Tumblr.Â
Corporations know this, and are desperate to lure in young audiences (in their minds, potential buyers and lifetime customers).
So how do they get us?
Feminist merch. Straight up, feminist merch. Shirts with pictures of Frida Kahlo. Jelly bracelets with the term âfeministâ strung around it on heart-shaped beads. Cheaply made baseball-tees with the term âfeministâ and a dictionary definition of the term beneath it in bold typeface.
Are these things cute? Sure, no lie.
Should we buy these? No, because feminism has been commodified. Itâs no longer a politicized term, but a buzz word that translates directly into dollar signs.
The retailers and brands selling you feminist merch pay their factory workers terribly. They donât provide maternal or paternal leave. The proceeds they make off feminism, off of the struggle of women, donât go to non-profits or to breast cancer survivors or low-income families; it goes to the pockets of large corporations
Frida Kahlo would HATE that. Actually, I know sheâd hate it.Â
The corporations selling you feminist merch donât care about feminism. They donât believe in it. Theyâre using the word to make money. Theyâre appropriating a cause, one they have no intention of supporting.
True feminist merch is handcrafted by you, the consumer. Itâs the bracelets you make with friends and the shirts you make with thrifted shirts and iron-on decals. True feminist merch is made by feminists. Thereâs often no profit involved, and if there is one, itâs donated or given meaning.Â
True feminist merch is political. It reiterates feminismâs beliefs and values and disrupts capitalism, misogyny, ableism, clasissm and etc.Â
Stop buying feminism and benefiting the same people who donât care about you
.Make feminism. Spread feminism.Â
Reclaim the term âfeminismâ one home-made tee at a time.
The Problem with "Shake It Off"
Americaâs sweetheart as gone âurbanâ. Iâm not sure if sheâs hopping on the pop bandwagon or if girls just wanna have fun, but Taylor Swiftâs latest video âShake It Offâ has her pulling a Miley. Now she hasnât gone totally rogue (no tongue or giant foam fingers here) but her video is just one of the latest in pop music by white artists capitalizing on black female bodies. However, while of course every type of commodification of bodies can be dangerous, Swiftâs particular take on black women has the potential to be one of the more dangerous.
