Happy Sunday everyone! Here’s this week’s topic announcement:

THIS WEEK: Breast Cancer Awareness and Pinkwashing

- Seen any recent examples of companies exploiting “Breast Cancer Awareness Month” to sell pink crap? Or alternatively a great campaign that actually does promote awareness or raise funds for research or patient support. Reblog to let us know!

NEXT WEEK: Sexism in Halloween Costumes

- Expect rage over the limited choice of “Sexy Everything” costumes for women, sexualisation of young girls, slut shaming, prude shaming and costume based racism.

THE WEEK AFTER: It’s our one year anniversary!

- On 7th November 2011 Holly-Rae put up our first ever video. It’s been an AMAZING first year so we’ll probably be looking back over that and maybe re-introducing ourselves to everyone who’s joined us more recently.

As ever if you’d like to make a guest video on these or any other topic then please click here for more info how and let us know!
