Manage episode 301212534 series 2851900
When's the last time you read a story set in a matriarchy? Did you enjoy it? What are the common tropes to writing matriarchies and who do they serve? In this episode you'll hear about fantasy and science fiction matriarchies in everything from Star Trek to books by Kameron Hurley, Sarah Rees Brennan, C.S. Pacat and many more, and what they get "right" and "wrong" about this form of social worldbuilding. In the final part of the episode you'll hear more in detail about a TV show that's breaking all the rules of fictional matriarchies - "Motherland: Fort Salem", a show where witches serve in the U.S. military.
