Description

Tansy E. Hoskins is an award winning author and journalist who investigates the global fashion industry. She’s the author of The Anti-Capitalist Book Of Fashion, Foot Work, and Stitched Up. This work has taken her to Bangladesh, India, North Macedonia, and to the Topshop warehouses in Solihull.“For me, standing in solidarity with the garment workers, 80 million people who are on the front line of capitalism, and in the garment industry. And showing up for them, with the living wage campaigns and the anti-gender-based violence campaigns. And sticking up for land defenders, the protestors in Myanmar, and the people defending the rainforest in Brazil. I think that's where you can start kind of living the political ideology of anti-capitalism. And we've got to free ourselves as well. Capitalism wants us to sort of fixate on our appearance and our consumer choices. Whereas I think if we free ourselves from that...the main thing I'm going to concentrate on is how we change the world in a collective internationalist fashion. I think then we start getting towards being anti-capitalist fashionistas, definitely.”www.plutobooks.com/9780745346618/the-anti-capitalist-book-of-fashion/www.amazon.co.uk/Foot-Work-What-Your-Shoes-Are-Doing-to-the-World-Tansy-Hoskins/dp/1474609856/www.creativeprocess.info www.oneplanetpodcast.org IG www.instagram.com/creativeprocesspodcastPhoto credit: Sarah Van Looy
