- Description
- Ahmed shows how feminist theory is generated from everyday life and the ordinary experiences of being a feminist at home and at work. Building on legacies of feminist of color scholarship in particular, Ahmed offers a personal meditation on how feminists become estranged from worlds they critique, often by naming and calling attention to problems and how feminists learn about worlds from their efforts to transform them.

- Description
- This book explores the meanings and experiences of home among a group of lesbians who over the past five decades have sought to create alternative intimate and public living spaces. The meaning of home and domestic space emerges from life histories informed by the wider social and political context and moves from the earliest memories of their childhood kitchens to their contemporary domestic lives. The kitchen emerged as a tangle of cultural norms, customs, duties, ideas, aspirations, expectations and values that tells about the thinking process and behaviour of this group of older lesbians.

These associations provide us with a way to think about intersectionality and tense encounters as spaces of possibility for new kinds of action and new kinds of learning.

- This book explores the meanings of home through the framework of sexuality. Looking at a broad spectrum of sexuality, gender and domesticity, it examines the many ways in which home is constructed, performed and experienced in relation to sexuality and gender. Considering identity issues such as age, class, ethnicity and gender, the authors problematize intimacy and question conventional ways of thinking about allegedly 'private' home space.

- Description
- Moultrie explores the impact of faith-based sexual ministries on black women's sexual agency to trace how these women navigate sexuality, religious authority and their spiritual walk with God. Providing churchwomen a space to discuss these issues, these popular ministries exist largely beyond the traditional church, with dialogues about sex taking place in chat rooms and through text messages and social media. Moultrie foregrounds a televangelist construction of the black Christian sexual identity these ministries promote while emphasizing how women reconcile these identities with their individual experiences. What does it mean for senior women to exercise sexual agency when their church standing could be questioned? What does celibacy mean for women who experience same-sex desire while believing that such desire goes against God's will?

- From the Women in Black vigils and Dyke marches to the Million Mom March, women have seized a dynamic role in early twenty-first century protest. The varied demonstrations--whether about gender, sexuality, war, or other issues--share significant characteristics as space-claiming performances in and of themselves beyond their place in any broader movement. Elizabeth Currans blends feminist, queer, and critical race theory with performance studies, political theory, and geography to explore the outcomes and cultural relevance of public protest.

This book provides an analysis of the myth of Swedish gender equality and demonstrates how that dominant idea has become a form of heteronormative, racially specific nationalism that ultimately excludes those who fall outside the social norm.

- All politics are reproductive politics, argues Briggs. From longer work hours to the election of Donald Trump, the current political crisis is above all about reproduction. Briggs outlines how politicians’ racist accounts of reproduction, stories of Black “welfare queens” and Latina “breeding machines', were the leading wedge in the government and business disinvestment in families. With decreasing wages, rising McJobs and no resources for family care, households have grown ever more precarious over the past forty years in sharply race-and class-stratified ways.
