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

The Centre for Studies in Gender and Sexuality at Ashoka University is conducting the summer webinar series titled "Summer of Ishq": Issues in Society, History and Queerness. Over the years, the series has been a platform that has put thinkers, scholars and activists in conversation with one another as they address a range of issues like intimacy, feminism, inequality, desire, resistance, religion and identity. In our summer edition, we hope to bring together an illustrious group of thinkers who can have conversations across borders as they engage with an international audience.

In this talk, Professor Ather Zia and Professor Papori Bora discuss Politics, analysing the gendered and racial aspects of state violence, and articulations of resistance in Kashmir and in India's Northeast.
