Hopepunk: How fiction can change reality | 16 Mar. 2025, 11:00

Is hope a radical act?
Can stories change the world?

This Sunday 16 March, 2025, at 11:00 am (Athens time) tune in to “Infinitely Curious”, the English-language show of ERT and Voice of Greece, where Katerina Batzaki explores hopepunk—a literary and narrative movement that turns optimism into resistance.

Joining the discussion will be:

šŸŽ™ Alexandra Rowland – The U.S. science fiction author who coined the term Hopepunk, explaining why choosing kindness is an act of defiance in today’s world, and

šŸŽ™ Eve Geroulis – Greek-American marketing strategist and educator, analyzing hope as a force for real-world change and its connection to Greece’s enduring rebellious spirit.

From literature to activism, from punk rebellion to radical optimism—Hopepunk refuses to back down.
Are you ready to join the resistance?

Produced and presented by Katerina Batzaki
