A New Frequency for Feminist Media.

Radical Signals is a feminist media platform born out of resistance.

We confront the normalisation of right-wing radicalism, gendered oppression, and cultural erasure by amplifying bold voices that disrupt the status quo.

What is Radical Signals?

We

Believe

In

The world has become progressively more used to blatant sexism, fascism and misogyny. Radical Signals exists to confront the growing normalisation of right-wing radicalism, gendered oppression, and cultural erasure.

We release themed capsules called Signals to explore complex topics often overlooked by mainstream media through interviews, essays, art, poetry and science - to reframe the narrative.

+ Feminism that is intersectional, unfiltered, and unapologetic

+ Creating space for dissent, vision, and cultural critique

+ Challenging the narrative through truth, art and science

+ Slowing down, going deep, and focusing on things worth saying

The Capsules

Cover page titled 'The Word Contents' with 'Capsule 01' written at the top. Features two women in black and white clothing, partially visible, standing back-to-back with their lower bodies shown. Instagram handle '@radicalsignals' on a blue oval at the bottom.

Our first capsule is called The F Word.

In The F Word, we trace how the meaning of feminism has shifted over time - across cultures, movements, identities. From anti-feminist women to TikTok aesthetics, from academic theory to real-world resistance, this capsule explores the distance between the label and the lived experience.

It’s not about reclaiming feminism for the sake of it. We set out to name the friction and fatigue about this word. Through essays, interviews, art and poetry, we begin our first transmission with one of the most misunderstood signals of them all.

Dive into The F Word - a capsule built to disrupt the noise, challenge the narratives, and make space for voices too often left out.

The F Word: But We’re Still Afraid to Say It

Feminism changed the world - so why does it feel like it’s vanished?

In a time when far-right ideology is rising and nuance is dead, the word feminism sits uneasily between overuse and erasure. It’s printed on t-shirts or weaponised as branding, then dismissed as outdated, irrelevant, or worse - radical noise.

Radical Signals was born to cut through that noise. We exist to discuss topics overlooked by mainstream media through interviews, essays, poetry, science and art.

Capsule 01: The F Word explores how feminism went underground, what we lost along the way, and why reclaiming it still matters.

Are Women Upholding the Patriarchy?

From Unity to Division: The Women Who Undid Feminism

The feminist movement in America was never a monolith. While one camp fought for full emancipation from gender roles, another emerged from the same roots - educated, independent women who believed in traditional hierarchies and saw the right to vote as enough.

Michelle Vaughan’s solo exhibition, A Movement of Women, dives deep into this divide. Through pastel portraits, Cold War memorabilia, and biographies of 40 conservative women from 1920–2020, she builds an archive of anti-feminist resistance.

Poetry

‘Them’ - a Poem

Poetry

“Them” was written in response to a moment many women know too well: sitting in rooms where your silence isn’t noticed, and your voice, when it does surface, is filtered through the lens of someone else’s authority. It’s tired and it happens daily to too many of us.

This poem threads together quiet frustration that many of us experience, asking:
What happens when even your capability must be announced by someone else?

Obedience Isn’t The Opposite Of Power: Pola Rader

Interview

In a world that often equates silence with submission, artist and filmmaker Pola Rader invites us to listen differently. Her photographic series Icon & Mirror captures Orthodox women in Russia navigating tradition, faith, and identity.

Rader’s work challenges the Western feminist assumption that power always looks loud. What if obedience isn’t a sign of weakness but it instead a way to survive?
