Sandrine Rousseau reveals how a photo from a defamation trial changed her view of women and politics forever.

The episode features an interview with Sandrine Rousseau, a member of Europe Écologie Les Verts and advisor to candidate Yannick Jadot, conducted by Violette from Radio Parleur. Rousseau begins by recounting a personal turning point: a defamation case against Denis Baupin, which she won for abusive procedure, leading her to shift from a 'disembodied' to an 'incarnated' politics focused on women's experiences. She emphasizes the importance of intersectionality in ecological struggles, arguing it is fundamental for systemic transformation. Rousseau critiques the French political landscape, noting that peaceful protests like climate marches often yield no results, while state violence against movements like the Yellow Vests has escalated. She defines her feminism with non-negotiable pillars: addressing violence against women, intersectionality, women in power, and precarious work. Rousseau discusses the hatred she faces online and offline, attributing it to opposition to women's freedom and progressive concepts. She advocates for radical politics, reclaiming the term as a return to roots and values, and supports Yannick Jadot's campaign while highlighting their complementary approaches. The interview includes a segment where Rousseau chooses a Yellow Vest as a symbolic object of Macron's presidency, analyzing the movement's origins and the state's response. She criticizes left-wing figures who adopt right-wing positions on security and immigration, calling it a cultural defeat. Rousseau stresses the need to involve popular classes in politics, citing her campaign's diverse base, and concludes by discussing her future political aspirations, emphasizing collective action over individual roles.
