‘I’M A FAN’ feat. SHEENA PATEL

You are listening to a live recording of a conversation we are having Sunday October 27th 2024 at Union, a cultural center in the middle of Nørrebro. This conversation is part of our partnership with Føljeton, where we have chosen 18 different books under the theme: 'compassionate critique of power’ where today's book and author is on that list. We are very excited to talk with our special guest for today, Sheena Patel, and delve into the complex dynamics of fandom, identity, and power which she explores in her work. We are talking about how we view the phenomenon of "fandom" as a form of power structure, both for the fan and the person being idolized? We also talk about how the protagonist is very difficult to cheer for. It is new to us, to see people in fiction that are not perfect, that are flawed, that don't always do the right thing. We delve into how it compares to how we are expected to be in real life? And so so much more. We can’t wait to hear your feedback from our very danglish version! <3 <3 <3 Tak til Mie Brandstrup for at klippe dette afsnit. Tak til Føljeton for samarbejdet. Tak til Awinbeh for musikken og Liv Habel for det smukke coverbillede. Kære lytter Det du nu skal høre er en liveoptagelse lavet i samarbejde med mediet Føljeton. Gennem efteråret (2024) har vi talt med forskellige forfattere som en del af vores kuratering af vigtige litterære værker til anden sæson af Føljetons digitale folkebibliotek. Vi har udvalgt 18 bøger under overskriften “Omsorgsfuld magtkritik”. Værker der på hver sin måde placerer kroppen som et centralt redskab til modstand, men også målestok for undertrykkelse, når den formes af samfundets krav og normer. Føljeton er normalt en lille digital avis, der skriver nyhedsbreve til vågne læsere om verden, som den er – og kunne være. Det sidste er vi især fans af! Nyhedsbrevene udkommer dagligt, ugentligt og månedligt og giver dig både det forkromede nyhedsoverblik og de smalle historier, som andre medier måske ikke skriver om.
