摘要

借助档案记录、口述历史和20世纪70年代的地下媒体,本文追溯了国际视频信件的历史,这是一个女权主义视频交换网络,从1975年到1977年运作。虽然主要总部设在美国,但该网络表达了改变电视格局的全球愿望,这是它与那个时代其他激进视频团体的共同目标。然而,与许多男性领导的游击队电视组织相比,国际电视信件优先考虑其独立于广播电视,而是将其网络构建为一个自主的,由女性管理的媒体系统。我认为,通过强调视频制作者和观众之间的关系,通过非等级组织结构,独立的分发系统和动态反馈会议,国际视频信件培养了一个致力于改变媒体对女性表现的女权主义反公众。通过对网络运作和输出的分析,本文断言,草根女权主义媒体倡议,如国际视频信件,在游击队电视的历史中起着核心作用,而他们在很大程度上被忽视了。

Creating a “Feminist Nation”
Drawing on archival records, oral histories, and the 1970s underground press, this article retraces the history of International Videoletters, a feminist video exchange network that operated from 1975 to 1977. Though primarily based in the United States, the network expressed global aspirations to transform the televisual landscape, a goal it shared with other activist video collectives of the era. However, in contrast to many male-led guerrilla television groups, International Videoletters prioritized its independence from broadcast television, structuring its network instead as an autonomous, women-run media system. I argue that by emphasizing the relationship between video producers and viewers through nonhierarchical organizational structures, independent distribution systems, and dynamic feedback sessions, International Videoletters fostered a feminist counterpublic committed to transforming media representation of women. Through analysis of the network’s operations and output, this article asserts the centrality of grassroots feminist media initiatives like International Videoletters to the history of guerrilla television, where they have largely been overlooked.
