Diversity in Metal w/ Sera (Fem-R) | Bleeding Metal Podcast 3.4

Bleeding Metal Podcast

The Metal community is the most welcoming of all musical subcultures - or are we? We have been posing this question for some years now.

On this episode, Kiki and Pia are joined by Sera, who works with a feminist and anti-racist organization in Finland and is part of the Heavy music community. Together, we evaluate where we really are at in matters of diversity and inclusion and discuss how we can support people from marginalized communities feel safer in our shared spaces.

Recorded on October 23rd, 2023.
