Wanda and Shannan sit down with survivor advocate and anti-oppression activist Meg Bossong to discuss Sleeping Beauty.
Meg’s offline for the foreseeable future in order to concentrate on her organizing work, but you can reach her through us at infoATonceuponapatriarchy.com if you want to get in touch.
One small correction: we said we thought that Sleeping Beauty was the second princess movie, but it wasn’t. Cinderella came out in 1950.
