Описание: Medical Entanglements uses intersectional feminist, queer, and crip theory to move beyond “for or against” approaches to medical intervention. Using a series of case studies – sex-confirmation surgery, pharmaceutical treatments for sexual dissatisfaction, and weight loss interventions – the book argues that, because of systemic inequality, most mainstream medical interventions will simultaneously reinforce social inequality and alleviate some individual suffering. The book demonstrates that there is no way to think ourselves out of this conundrum as the contradictions are a product of unjust systems. Thus, Gupta argues that feminist activists and theorists should allow individuals to choose whether to use a particular intervention, while directing their social justice efforts at dismantling systems of oppression and at ensuring that all people, regardless of race, gender, sexuality, class, or ability, have access to the basic resources required to flourish.

Описание: This book for the first time brings together considerations upon the feminine in relation to Paul Ricoeur s thinking. It aims at showing the rich potential of his thought for feminist theory, without eschewing to critically scrutinize it and to show its limitations with respect to thinking gender differences. Fourteen renowned scholars, who have published extensively on Ricoeur, as well as young promising scholars are gathered in the volume. In the first part, Ricoeur and the Feminine, Ricoeur s work is taken as the starting point for a reflection upon the position of women, the feminine, and the capable female subject. In the second part, Discourse, Critique and Recognition, the dialogue between Ricoeur and feminist authors such as Simone de Beauvoir, Judith Butler, Nancy Fraser, and Rosemary Radford Reuther enables us to think through not only socially relevant notions such as discourse, recognition, and justice, but also feminist theological themes such as the divine. In the third part, New Directions for Feminism, Ricoeurian notions and ideas are the starting point for reflections upon new perspectives for feminist philosophy, black feminist thought and feminist theology. Here the fertility of Ricoeur s philosophy for feminism is developed to its full extent."

Описание:

How black women have personified art,expression,identity, and freedom through performance

Winner, 2016 William Sanders Scarborough Prize, presented by the Modern Language Association for an outstanding scholarly study of African American literature or culture

Winner, 2016 Barnard Hewitt Award for Outstanding Research in Theatre History, presented by the American Society for Theatre Research

Winner, 2016 Errol Hill Award for outstanding scholarship in African American theater, drama, and/or performance studies, presented by the American Society for Theatre Research

Tracing a dynamic genealogy of performance from the nineteenth to the twenty-first
century, Uri McMillan contends that black women artists practiced a purposeful self-
objectification, transforming themselves into art objects. In doing so, these artists raised
new ways to ponder the intersections of art, performance, and black female embodiment.
McMillan reframes the concept of the avatar in the service of black performance art,
describing black women performers’ skillful manipulation of synthetic selves and adroit
projection of their performances into other representational mediums. A bold rethinking of
performance art, Embodied Avatars analyzes daring performances of alterity staged by
“ancient negress” Joice Heth and fugitive slave Ellen Craft, seminal artists Adrian Piper and
Howardena Pindell, and contemporary visual and music artists Simone Leigh and Nicki
Minaj. Fusing performance studies with literary analysis and visual culture studies,
McMillan offers astute readings of performances staged in theatrical and quotidian locales,
from freak shows to the streets of 1970s New York; in literary texts, from artists’ writings
to slave narratives; and in visual and digital mediums, including engravings, photography,
and video art. Throughout, McMillan reveals how these performers manipulated the
dimensions of objecthood, black performance art, and avatars in a powerful re-scripting of
their bodies while enacting artful forms of social misbehavior.

Описание: When Sarah Hanson-Young called out the abuse she received from male parliamentarians as slut-shaming, she sparked a national conversation about the rampant sexism in politics. Placing the responsibility on women to defend themselves is the same cheap trick as asking, why didn't she just fight back? After witnessing verbal abuse levelled at female parliamentarians and public figures, Hanson-Young is convinced that now is the time to call it out and not retreat.

Описание: Hazel Brannon Smith (1914-1994) stood out as a prominent white newspaper owner in Mississippi before, during, and after the civil rights movement. Smith`s biography reveals how many historians have miscast white moderates of this period. This book complicates the narrative of the white media and business people responding to the movement`s challenging call for racial justice.

Описание: For thirty-four years Sister Anne Brooks, a Catholic nun and doctor of osteopathy, served one of the nation's most impoverished towns and regions, Tutwiler, in Tallahatchie County in the Mississippi Delta. In 1983, she reopened the Tutwiler Clinic, which had remained closed for five years, as no other physician was willing to serve in Tallahatchie County. Starting with only two other nuns and regularly working twelve-hour days, Brooks's patient load - in a region where seven out of ten patients that walked in her door had no way to pay for care - grew from thirty to forty individuals per month her first year to more than 8,500 annually.Sally Palmer Thomason tells the powerful story of Sister Anne Brooks, beginning with her tumultuous childhood, the contracting and overcoming of crippling arthritis in early adulthood, and her near-unprecedented decision to attend medical school at the age of forty. Dr. Brooks's remarkable dedication and accomplishments in caring for the health and well-being of both the individuals and the community of Tutwiler attracted ongoing attention and was often featured in national publications and media, including People magazine and 60 Minutes. Thomason not only shares Brooks's powerful story but reveals, through excerpts from journal entries, letters, and interviews, the intimate musings that connect Brooks's faith in God to her profound compassion for others. Whether it is Brooks's efforts to desegregate Tutwiler or provide free healthcare, her constant devotion to others is striking.

Описание: The first African American to win the Nobel Prize in Literature, Toni Morrison is one of the most celebrated women writers in the world. In Bodily Evidence: Racism, Slavery, and Maternal Power in the Novels of Toni Morrison, Geneva Cobb Moore explores how Morrison captures and mirrors the tragedy experienced by and transformation of African Americans, using parody and pastiche, semiotics and metaphors, and allegory to portray black life in the United States, teaching untaught history to liberate Americans.

In this short and accessible book, originally published as part of Moore's Maternal Metaphors of Power in African American Women's Literature, she covers each of Morrison's novels, from The Bluest Eye to Beloved to God Help the Child. With a new introduction and added coverage of Morrison's final book, The Source of Self-Regard: Selected Essays, Speeches, and Meditations, Bodily Evidence will be essential reading for scholars, students, and readers of Morrison's novels.

Описание:

This book thematically analyses and surveys areas of Caribbean history and society. The work is divided into three parts: part one addresses migration and identity; part two explores policy and development; and part three explores music and literature. The volume places a fresh perspective on these topics. The essays depart from the usual broader themes of politics, economics and society and provide a deeper insight into forces that left a decisive legacy on aspects of the Caribbean region. Such contributions come at a time when some of the Caribbean territories are marking over 50 years as independent nation states and attempting to create, understand and forge ways of dealing with critical national and regional issues. The volume brings together a broad group of scholars writing on Caribbean issues including postgraduate students, lecturers, and researchers. Each chapter is thematically divided into the aforementioned areas. This book addresses areas much deeper than the linear historical and social science models, and it offers Caribbean academics and researchers a foundation for further research.
