Sara Ahmed: Killjoys on Tour
Friday, 21st June, 2024 , 5:30pm to 7:00pm
“So many of us are under attack, our claims to personhood dismissed as ‘identity politics’, our protests as ‘cancel culture’, our intellectual contributions as ‘vandalism’. The feminist killjoy, that history condensed into a figure, helps us to recognise these attacks for what they are, defences of an old order.”
Sara Ahmed, The Feminist Killjoy Handbook
Join a discussion of feminist killjoys, who they are and why we need them, with Sara Ahmed, author of The Feminist Killjoy Handbook, which was released in paperback earlier this year. The handbook is “a helping hand for those of us who are fighting against inequalities and injustices of many kinds.”
This informal conversation will be a chance to share our resources, to tell killjoy stories and express killjoy solidarity.
