‘There was a cone of silence as though this was normal’: tuning in and turning up the conversation on ‘Teach Us Consent’

This essay details research into feminist digital activism in the Australian context through analysing the themes that emerged from the Teach Us Consent website. It provides a preliminary analysis of its contents as a means to continue and deepen the conversation around issues of gender, consent, and the education system. It also examines the difficulties and potentials of this digital type of feminist activism and research while highlighting the importance of technology as a 'testimonial space' [Gilmore 2017.
