I thought this Judith Butler interview on gender was excellent. It was an exchange of emails, so much better than a conversation; the written word is still the most powerful tool of communication we have.
[The initial version of this post mailed to subscribers had the wrong link to the Butler interview. Sorry about that. It’s now been corrected.]

Hi Matthew, the link to the Judith Butler piece is broken. Can you give us the correct one? Thanks.
Here it is https://www.newstatesman.com/international/2020/09/judith-butler-culture-wars-jk-rowling-and-living-anti-intellectual-times
Will update post. Clearly pasted in the wrong link there, originally.
Thanks
