My guest on today’s episode is Souria Cheurfi. Souria is the editor in chief of VICE Belgium and the founder of Psst madamoiselle, pluridisciplinary events organiser promoting female artists. She specialises in culture, women's and LGBTQ rights, and music.
At a Japanese izakaya on the Brussels canal, we talk about carving out a space for female performers in the Brussels music scene and the thrill of seeing them become successful and visible, why she ended up working at Vice, and how the freedom of Brussels shaped her into the person she is now.
Quick note for context, this episode was recorded before the Covid-19 lockdown in Brussels and the global anti-racist movement that has emerged in the wake of the murder of George Floyd.
