About this episode
This episode discusses the postponement of Brighton's World Naked Bike Ride due to political tensions in the city.
Brighton’s World Naked Bike Ride was supposed to celebrate its twentieth year this June. Instead, organizers made the difficult decision to postpone after a far-right march and multiple counter-protests were announced for the same day. The conflict had nothing to do with cycling or nudity directly, but it changed the city around the ride. This episode looks at how public events built around vulnerability and visibility are shaped by the wider political climate they move through. More at www dot planetnude dot co.
