WGSS 16 Contemporary Issues in Feminism: Theory and Practice
How do feminist, queer, and racialized minoritarian subjects move through and produce knowledge about inhospitable worlds, often against the limits of what is sayable, knowable, and thinkable? What makes a reading practice, text, or act feminist or queer? What makes critical knowledge critical? These questions will guide this seminar on feminist ways of knowing. Together we will explore the politics of knowledge and roles of theory in knowing and transforming the world.
