F Njahîra Wangarî - Book Chapter

Abstract
"This chapter blends African oral and written narratives, lived experiences with a genetic chronic disability and a Roman Catholic upbringing. These will be interrogated to illustrate the role of alternative explanations in influencing advocacy and activism for the lives, wellbeing, dignity and inclusion of persons with disabilities. Particularly, this chapter is an exploration of self-identity and how persons with disabilities are conditioned to view ourselves in specific ways while highlighting alternative perceptions available is presented by the author. It engages the works of several African and African-descendent authors who feature persons with disabilities as characters in their books and relies on narrative prosthesis as the basis for this engagement."

Event Description

This webinar is the SECOND in the ANU Gender Institute 2021 Signature Seminar Series - CROSSROADS: Intersectionality in Feminist Research, Policy and Practice

Is it possible for government to contribute to an equal future, or will we achieve it despite government? How do these challenges play out in the context of climate change, COVID and the calls for more socially just futures prompted by movements like #BlackLivesMatter and the protests that have taken place in the wake of Brittany Higgins and other #me too movements? What do intersectional approaches have to offer in these spaces in terms of achieving a more equal future?
