For me, if folks who are watching YouTube can pitch in a bit to help cover the cost for creating this work, that’s great, but I don’t want folks who can’t helped to not have access to it. I really like the crowdfunding model in that regard.

I came back to this idea of telling the stories of women who aren’t in all of the history books. Their names are not up there next to male names that we’ve know since we were little kids. Ching Shih, for example, was a pirate commander from the late 1800s to the early 1900s. She was one of the most fearsome pirates, why is her name not included when we list the names of great pirates like Blackbeard?

I find crowdfunding to be one of the most ethical ways to continue doing the work that we do because the idea is that I want my videos to be free and available to everybody, and that’s why I use YouTube and online platforms.

I got to focus on my performance – learning how to perform is something I’ve been working on both personally and professionally.

Performances

I hadn’t mentioned, but Ching Shih is a pretty villainous character. She is a real person, but she was a pirate commander, so she probably murdered a lot of people.

I really wanted to explore a range of women who aren’t necessarily perfect, heroic women. I wanted to series to influence creative people to include more women in their work, especially historic works.

I want these to be names that young girls and boys and kids of all genders grow up knowing. It shouldn’t just be when you take a feminist class in college, if you happen to do that. I hope this is fun and engaging for folks to watch.

Growing Up

I wanted to make feminism more accessible. And I really wanted to engage with my own generation, one that is increasingly speaking in an audio/video multimedia language.

I’m no stranger to a bit of sexist backlash, but I was surprised by the level of vicious and misogynist hate I received.

It’s been really exciting to work on a collaborative, creative team where we got to bounce ideas back and forth and figure out the best one.
