- Description
- History of the UK Women's Liberation Movement. Oral history testimonies power the work, tracing the arc of a feminist life from 1950s girlhoods to late life activism today. The author uses oral history as creative method, making significant use of ‘Sisterhood and After: The Women's Liberation Oral History Project’ to animate still-unresolved controversies of race, class, sexuality, disability, and feminist identity. She provides insight into iconic actions including the Miss World Protest, the fight to protect abortion rights, and the peace protest at Greenham Common. She also explores men's violence and today's demands for trans-liberation as areas of continuing feminist concern.

- Description
- Dit boek gaat over de ideeën en beelden die het woord 'thuis' oproept in Engeland in de periode '45 tot '64, en de betekenis ervan in het kader van gender, etniciteit en natie. Aan de hand van mondelinge verhalen en egodocumenten van vrouwen, probeert de auteur te kijken naar de verschillen in betekenis van het woord 'thuis' voor vrouwen, vooral zwarte, migrantenvrouwen die immigreerden naar Engeland, sinds de instorting van het kolonialisme.

- Description
- Onderzoek naar diaspora gaat vaak voorbij aan de ierse diaspora, een van de oudste en veelomvatttendste, omdat deze wordt uitgesloten op gronden van 'whiteness'. Ierse vrouwen in de diaspora zijn onzichtbaar, maar hun ervaringen illustreren de complexiteit van raciale en etnische verwevenheden in de geschiedenis van zowel de Verenigde Staten als Groot-Brittannië.

- Description
- For South Asians, food regularly plays a role in how issues of race, class, gender, ethnicity, and national identity are imagined. This book provides food for thought as it considers the metaphors literature, film, and TV shows use to describe Indians abroad. When an immigrant mother in Jhumpa Lahiri's 'The Namesake', combines Rice Krispies, Planters peanuts, onions, salt, lemon juice, and green chili peppers to create a dish similar to one found on Calcutta sidewalks, it not only evokes the character's Americanization, but also her nostalgia for India. Food, Anita Mannur writes, is a central part of the cultural imagination of diasporic populations. Mannur examines the cultural production from the Anglo-American reaches of the South Asian diaspora. Using texts from novels - Chitra Divakaruni's 'Mistress of Spices', and Shani Mootoo's 'Cereus Blooms at Night' - to cookbooks such as Madhur Jaffrey's 'Invitation to Indian Cooking' and Padma Lakshmi's 'Easy Exotic', she illustrates how national identities are consolidated in culinary terms.

- Description
- Hussain uses the concepts of cultural hybridity, diaspora, identity, ethnicity and race to explore cultural production by British South Asian women including Monica Ali, Meera Syal and Gurinder Chadha. She provides a sociological analysis of the contexts and experiences of the British South Asian community, discussing key concerns that emerge within the work of this new generation of women writers and which express more widespread debates within the community. In particular these authors address issues of individual and group identity and the ways in which these are affected by ethnicity and gender. Contents: Identity and gender across generations of British South Asians: Black British feminism and the birth of South Asian women‘s writing: The new woman in South Asian and diasporic literature: 'Bhaji on the Beach' and 'Bend It Like Beckham': Gurinder Chadha and the ‘Desification’ of British cinema: 'Brick Lane': gender and migration: Childhood in 'Anita and Me'.

- Description
- This bookdevelops essential insights concerning the notion of transnational citizenship by means of the life stories of highly educated Turkish migrant women in Germany and Great Britain, interweaving and developing theories of citizenship, identity and hybridity with the lived experiences of an immigrant group that has so far received insufficient attention. By focusing on the British and German contexts, it introduces a European and comparative perspective, whilst exploring the ways in which concepts and policies of citizenship allow for a differentiated examination of ethnicity, gender, multiculturalism and citizenship in Europe. With its empirical material in its exploration of the ways in which migrant women, though often marginalized from the nation as legal or cultural outsiders, create new meanings of belonging, this book suggests how citizenship debates can be reframed to be inclusive of migrant women as actors.
