Ep. 29: Catcalls and reading and music videos

Continuing the month of Philly I guess... Welcome back to Kinda Radical in 2025! Today we are joined by AJ McCormick, personally running the Catcalls of Philadelphia chapter! This is the Philly chapter of the Chalk Back Movement which began in New York in 2016 aimed at calling out and ending street harassment. There are over 60 chapters around the world and I am honored to be joined today by AJ. 

On this episode we talk about the Chalk Back Movement, how to start your own local chapter, why street harassment is normalized in society and media, and how to safely respond or deal with harassment on the streets.
