- Description provided by the artist: .This poem opens the Introduction to 'She Grrrowls. The Anthology' edited by Carmina Masoliver. She is the founder of the feminist spoken word night 'She Grrrowls' in London, UK. The book reunites the poems that have been performed on the stage and it was published in 2017 by Burning Eye Press. .The poem addresses the traditional roles that have been assigned to young boys and girls.The text is intentionally in an editing format as if an unseen patriarchal hand is correcting the text to find the mistakes and discover any inaccuracies related to how young girls and boys should be brought up. Carmina Masoliver is highlighting through language how easy we assign roles and invites the reader to ponder upon the implications these roles have throughout the lifetime of young girls.. .This artwork is part of the project Footnotes on Equality: http://footnotesonequality.eu/all/

- Description provided by the artist: .The image is a poster of Silvia Albert Sopale’s play No Es Pais Para Negras, which was performed in the city of Oviedo last December. The performance was organized by CODOPA, a local NGO.. .'No es país para negras' is Silvia Albert Sopale's first solo performance and probably one of the first plays written and staged by a black woman in Spain. Born in San Sebastián from Nigerian and Ecuatorial Guinean parents, she has participated in other performances such as a version of 'La casa de Bernarda Alba', 'Memories', or 'Pallasas Power', where black female subjectivity has been put at the center. .Determined to open a space for black women artists in Spain and to make female authorship visible, she introduces her play as a 'legacy' and as her way to change the world, to raise awareness and encourage reflection. It is a work that is self-referential while giving voice to African descendants in Spain, a fight against covert racism and paternalistic views on Africa. 'No es país para negras' is, as she states, a play that 'speaks of a place that is inside one's own' as she reveals her personal journey of rejection, acceptance and fight for recognition throughout her performance.. .This artwork is part of the project Footnotes on Equality: http://footnotesonequality.eu/all/

- Description provided by the artist: .The chosen object is my US citizen passport. Today, in a period of high economic crisis and after a terrible hurricane has devastated the island, the issue of Puertorican US citizenship and Puerto Rico political status have become a central topic of discussion globally. The fact that I do have US citizen passport, but I do not have the same rights of other US citizens, is an excellent example of how inequality can coexist under regimes based on ideas of democracy and progress.. . .I called my object 'Citizenship Otherwise'. I decided to submit an image of my US citizen passport to reflect on how the same citizenship can mean different things to different people in diverse historical and political contexts. I attempt to narrate a personal story of inequality through an object that I regularly use. This object represent my own experience with colonialism and inequality.. .This artwork is part of the project Footnotes on Equality: http://footnotesonequality.eu/all/

- Description provided by artist: .The photo was part of a project called 'Step in Inequality', designed by the artists Chandani Karnik in collaboration with Kazunori Shiina. The concept image represents an underground staircase. Women are asked to climb the traditional stairs, which takes longer and more effort, while men can use the escalator.. . .In the labour market, women are not only underpaid as compared to men, but they also have to work harder to make their mark and work their way up the corporate .ladder. The installation aims at visually representing how gender inequality can manifest itself, particularly in the business world by asking people to take two different .sets of stairs in order to show how 'the road to the top is not the same for men and women'. The concept image represents an underground staircase. Women are .asked to climb the traditional stairs, which takes longer and more effort, while men can use the escalator.. .This artwork is part of the project Footnotes on Equality: http://footnotesonequality.eu/all/

- Description provided by the artist: .Since my project targets youth and their relationship with street culture through humour and laughter from a gender perspective, this picture mirrors young women's reaction to slam poetry. As one can notice, the number of young women surpasses men's number. In slam poetry the audience is crucial in how the discourse is perceived. From a feminist perspective, these young women use their voice and laughter to react to a certain type of discourse and intervene and have the power to influence the person on stage. At the same time, this picture portays young women in a public space and have their presence felt and their voices heard.. .This picture features a mixed group of young people enjoying a performance act in a public urban space. The presence of young women in a larger number raises the question of who is present at this kind of cultural event. In slam poetry the audience has a special characteristic. Some people in the audience are randomly given the role of judges thus letting the poet know when a poem does/does not connect with them. In this context, laughter is a reaction of acceptance and engagement.. .This artwork is part of the project Footnotes on Equality: http://footnotesonequality.eu/all/

- Description provided by the artist: .The ethnographic context of my research project on sport and gender equality is a boxing academy in a city in Yorkshire, UK. Founded in the 1940s, the place is a nonprofit voluntary amateur boxing club that includes in its activities sex integrated sessions. Furthermore, it has been a platform for women and men at the competitive level. .In order to collect primary data, I have conducted selfimmersion in subcultural setting as a regular participant to the boxing place. By doing this I seek to establish “an experimental and appreciative relationship with the people” about whom I will write about (McCaughey, 1998:279). In accordance to this, Molnar points out that: “For the sake of understanding the field and rich data collection, an ethnographer often has to make some tough, potentially lifealtering choices to be able to carry out participant observation. In doing so, the researcher may have to put his/her body on the line to become an instrument of data collection.” (Molnar, 2015:3). .The objects that I am submitting in this round are contextualized in my first visit to the boxing gym. My intention with them is to represent on one side my embodiment of the field and on the other the existence of gender stereotypes not only in sportive contexts but also in our minds.. .Boxing is an urban phenomenon where violent physical contact is a key element. Historically it has been practiced by men of working classes even though nowadays women are participating in it and gender relations and identities have being challenged. Women, however, are still underrepresented and discriminated whilst men remain as role models and overall sport still produces orthodox masculinities and celebrates sex essentialist discourses. Furthermore, gender stereotypes remain. For these reasons boxing is a great field for analyzing gender in the frame of the research project “Sport as a site for the production of cultures of equality” which is part of the GRACE Work Package “Urban cultures of gender equality”.. .This artwork is part of the project Footnotes on Equality: http://footnotesonequality.eu/all/

- Description provided by the artist: .'Uovo s'ode' is made of the inside shell of a Kinder egg (the plastic one containing the surprise) filled with corn seeds in order for it to make noise when shaken. The shell bears the name of a woman victim of femicide in Italy during 2016 and the date of her death.. .'Uovo s'ode' is the name of an ingenious campaign promoted by a Roman social centre in occasion of the 'Non una di meno' rally to protest against male perpetrated violence on women held in Rome on November 26th, 2016. The campaign exploits the word play created by the similar sound of 'uovo s'ode' [an egg you can hear] and 'uova sode' [boiled eggs]. The object (the innder shell of a kinder egg filled with corn seeds) was used to make noise and accompany chants at the 'Non una di meno' rally in Rome on November 26th.. .This artwork is part of the project Footnotes on Equality: http://footnotesonequality.eu/all/

It aims to show the materiality of the bodies, machines and flows at work and thus to denude/ uncover/ expose hidden processes.. .Through visibilization, the collage aims to demystify digital technologies and menstrual blood flows.

- Description provided by the artist: .Alice is a 23-year-old young performer from Manchester, UK. The researcher met her at a poetry slam event at 3MT on Oldham Street. She stepped confidently on the stage and asked the public: 'Do you think we have equality? I tell you: we're not even close!'. Her poetry challenges society's ideals of beauty and she thinks people are scared of what's different and feel uncomfortable when others stray away from the 'norm'. She encourages young black women to embrace the desire of being different from what the patriarchal society expects them to be.. .This artwork is part of the project Footnotes on Equality: http://footnotesonequality.eu/all/
