La pandémie a radicalement modifié l’organisation de la société, avec une augmentation du travail à domicile, de l’enseignement à domicile et de la présence en ligne, le tout avec des implications spécifiques (non)intentionnelles sur le travail de soins rémunéré et non rémunéré. Ces implications, comme celles d’autres crises, sont sexistes et se manifestent selon le sexe, l’âge, le handicap, l’origine ethnique/la race, le statut migratoire, la religion, la classe sociale et les intersections entre ces inégalités. Si de nombreuses études ont identifié ces impacts inégaux et négatifs et soulignent d’importantes inégalités liées aux soins, la contribution spécifique de cet article est différente, à savoir celle de mettre en évidence des pratiques inspirantes comme de meilleures histoires de et dans le domaine des soins pendant la pandémie. L’objectif est de rendre ces meilleures histoires visibles et de les considérer comme des moyens d’atténuer les impacts inégaux de la COVID-19 et de ses réponses politiques. Théoriquement, l’approche est basée sur les « meilleures histoires », telles que développées par Dina Georgis (2013, Better Story. Queer Affects from the Middle East , New York : State University). L'article utilise des données quantitatives et qualitatives, recueillies auprès des 27 États membres de l'UE, de l'Islande, de la Serbie, de la Turquie et du Royaume-Uni, dans le cadre du projet européen H2020 RESISTIRÉ.

A intersecção de gênero, raça e classe marca os territórios de exclusão social, especialmente em um país que carrega cicatrizes da colonialidade patriarcal e capitalista em suas estruturas, como é o caso do Brasil. O objetivo deste trabalho é compreender o cuidado em um desses territórios: a cidade de Cubatão/SP. A investigação, feita entre 2017 e 2020, incluiu a pandemia da covid-19, que sobrecarregou o cuidado no território. O método foi a pesquisa qualitativa, com oficinas, observação participante e entrevistas de profundidade. O cuidado era majoritariamente oferecido por mulheres, líderes comunitárias e profissionais da atenção primária do Sistema Único de Saúde. Para analisar os dados, utilizou-se a hermenêutica de profundidade. O referencial teórico foi a costura das teorias feministas da ética do cuidado, ecofeministas e interseccionais. A pesquisa revelou diversos desafios e potencialidades, como o cuidado ético-político, eixo da busca por justiça socioambiental. , Abstract The intersection of gender, race and class marks the territories of social exclusion, especially in a country that carries scars of a patriarchal and capitalist colonialism in its structures, as is the case in Brazil. The objective was to understand care in this territory of exclusion in Cubatão, São Paulo, Brazil. The research, conducted between 2017 and 2020, included the pandemic of COVID-19, which overloaded care in this territory. The method was qualitative research, with workshops, participant observation and in-depth interviews. The care delivered by community leaders and primary health care professionals from the Brazilian National Health System was mostly performed by women. For data analysis, depth hermeneutics was used. The theoretical reference was the perspective of feminists: ecofeminist, intersectional and Care Ethics. The study showed several challenges and the ethical-political care as an axis in the search for social and environmental justice.

We utilized the emotional labor triangle to understand how 16 Black women students who attended Historically white colleges and universities (HWCUs) navigated gendered-racialized oppressive environments that mattered to their academic success. This study contributes to a gap in the literature, as much of the research focused on students of color without disaggregating for gender or other social identities. In addition, the literature is scant on experiences of Black women students use of emotional labor. Emotional labor has largely been studied from a management perspective. Through qualitative semi-structured interviews, we examined the emotional labor Black women expended while pursuing their undergraduate degree. We employed a qualitative, intersectional, methodological approach to foreground historically marginalized voices and situated the study in the hypervisibility Black women participants described feeling as space invaders on their historically White undergraduate campus and at the same time the invisibleness of their voice and masking of their feelings as they encountered gendered racism. Further, we emphasized the emotional toll and stress that may occur for Black women when they do not utilize engaged coping mechanisms while expending their emotional labor. The study holds implications for educators to address emotional labor inequities within HWCUs.

This research examines the discourses that shape disabled women’s sexual subjectivity. I wanted to see how disabled women’s understanding of themselves as sexual is socially influenced. I held a focus group and individually interviewed five self-identified physically disabled women about their sexual lives. They shared detailed stories of personal experiences and societal influences. The main social influences that were present in the women’s stories were ableism, sexism, and resistance; the focus of this article is resistance. Resistance discourses challenge mainstream notions of disability and sexuality and combat the oppression that ableism and sexism can create. It is important work to highlight these resistance narratives; they are often overlooked in society. Diverse social understandings of disability and sexuality are needed, and it is important that they come from disabled people. This research seeks to make space for disabled perspectives in the interest of sexual inclusivity and sexual citizenship for disabled women.

"Dans un essai passionné et engagé, Jennifer Padjemi explore l'alliance, pour le meilleur et pour le pire, des féminismes et de la pop culture. A partir des mouvements féministes modernes, elle décortique le rapport que nous entretenons avec les objets culturels les plus populaires. En utilisant la pop culture comme un miroir de notre société mondialisée, l'auteure interroge les liens d'interdépendance entre consommation de masse et idéologie progressiste, et jette un regard joyeux et lucide sur nos divertissements, sans concession au patriarcat."--Quatrième de couverture.

Although environmental justice researchers have long been interested in the connections between disaster recovery, gender, and home- and community-based care, the consequences of the post-disaster performance of emotional labor by workers in care occupations have largely gone unnoticed. To address this gap in the environmental injustice literature, in this exploratory article we employ a feminist analysis of firsthand accounts of elementary educators' professional and personal experiences caring for their students in the Florida Keys after Hurricane Irma. We find that caring labor was increasingly necessary in the post-disaster context, both inside and outside the classroom. Teachers and other care professionals in feminized occupations may, therefore, perform an emotional double duty, supporting their students' emotional needs while also contending—as working- and middle-class individuals—with the personal consequences of disaster. We suggest that these educators may bear an unrecognized and undercompensated disproportionate burden at the intersection of class and occupational status. Because of this, we introduce an underexplored component to the racialized disaster patriarchy and intersectional disaster research: feminized occupational status. Inspired by environmental justice research legacies developed in the wake of earlier Gulf Coast disasters, we draw attention to the contributions of these absolutely essential recovery workers and how they may experience environmental injustice even as they contribute to others' recovery. Our goals are to promote recognition and fair distribution of burdens, encourage research into the contours of environmental justice and care work, and support the development of more just planning, training, and compensation regimes.

This handbook provides a much-needed holistic overview of disability and sexuality research andscholarship. With authors from a wide range of disciplines and representing a diversity of nationalities, it provides a multi-perspectival view that fully captures the diversity of issues and outlooks. Organised into six parts, the contributors explore long-standing issues such as the psychological, interpersonal, social, political and cultural barriers to sexual access that idsabled people face and their struggle for sexual rights and participation. The volume also engages issues that have been on the periphery of the discourse, such as sexual accomodations and support aimed at facilitating disabled people's sexual well-being; the socio-sexual tensions confronting disabled people with intersecting stigmatised identities such as LGBTBI or asexual; and the sexual concerns of disabled people in the Global South. It interrogates disability and sexuality from diverse perspectives, from more traditional psychological and sociological models, to various subversive and post-theoretical perspectives and queer theory. This handbook examines the cutting-edge, and sometimes ethically contentious, concerns that have been repressed in the field. With current, international and comprehensive content, this book is essential reading for students, academics and researchers in the areas of disability, gender and sexuality, as well as applied disciplines such as healthcare pratictionners, counsellors, psychology trainees and social workers.

Informal caregivers are those who provide care for others without compensation. In the US, 85 % of elderly individuals receive care from an informal caregiver, and this number is expected to increase. Caregivers often experience different types of strain, stemming from physical, emotional, and financial demands. Guided by intersectionality theory, this study explores the relationships between informal caregiving strains and gender, race, and income, along with various control variables, including age, marital status, education, number of hours spent providing care, and employment status. Data from the 2015 Caregiving in the US survey (N = 1248) were used. Findings indicated male informal caregivers reported more financial strain compared to females. White women reported more emotional strain than women of color, and those with higher incomes reported less financial strain. Gender, race, and income were not significantly related to physical strain among informal caregivers. Implications, limitations, and suggestions for future research are discussed. © 2019, The International Society for Quality-of-Life Studies (ISQOLS) and Springer Nature B.V.

« Valparaíso, décembre 1986, tremblement de terre entre les quatre murs d'une maison. Un homme et une femme annoncent à leurs enfants qu'il faut tout laisser derrière et fuir le Chili de Pinochet. C'est Noël, la petite Caroline a sept ans et elle aura la nausée durant tout le voyage. La fillette atterrit à Montréal. En plus de la neige dehors, il y a le tapis rouge vin de l'hôtel Ramada qui accueille les personnes réfugiées en attente de papiers. Il y a aussi Passe-Partout qui semble s'adresser à elle à travers le téléviseur. Après le premier appartement à Montréal-Nord, la classe d'accueil de madame Thérèse qui lui apprend le français, les enfants qui se moquent de ses cheveux et de sa boîte à lunch, la misère des rues d'Hochelaga, il y aura tout ce temps passé dans les banques où ses parents font des ménages. Entre l'exil, les fantômes du passé et le jeu des différences, la petite Caroline camouflera sa furieuse envie de vivre pour ne plus détonner et devenir une immigrante modèle. Mais comment apprend-on à ne plus s'effacer? Peut-on embrasser une nouvelle culture sans renier ses origines? Lumineux et vivant, Là où je me terre sonde la possibilité d'aimer et de lutter sans ne plus avoir à fuir. »

A Black feminist disability framework allows for methodological considerations of the intersectional nature of oppression. Our work in this article is twofold: to acknowledge the need to consider disability in Black Studies and race in Disability Studies, and to forward an intersectional framework that considers race, gender, and disability to address the gaps in both Black Studies and Disability Studies. By employing a Black feminist disability framework, scholars of African American and Black Studies, Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies, and Disability Studies have a flexible and useful methodology through which to consider the historical, social, cultural, political, and economic reverberations of disability.

In Living a Feminist Life Sara 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 poetic and 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. Ahmed also provides her most sustained commentary on the figure of the feminist killjoy introduced in her earlier work while showing how feminists create inventive solutions-such as forming support systems-to survive the shattering experiences of facing the walls of racism and sexism. The killjoy survival kit and killjoy manifesto, with which the book concludes, supply practical tools for how to live a feminist life, thereby strengthening the ties between the inventive creation of feminist theory and living a life that sustains it. https://www.saranahmed.com/

L’analyse thématique de 32 entrevues réalisées avec des femmes Atikamekw révèle qu’elles connaissent le mode de vie de leurs ancêtres et le rôle que les femmes y jouaient, que ce rôle était prédominant et essentiel dans l’organisation spatiale des activités traditionnelles sur le territoire, que les accouchements sont des marqueurs spatiotemporels, que la désignation du lieu d’origine a changé à la suite des bouleversements sociaux et territoriaux, que la désignation des personnes par le nom traditionnel est toujours en usage, que les femmes Atikamekw étaient responsables de l’éducation. L’obligation d’envoyer les enfants dans les pensionnats de 1955 à 1972 a provoqué une cassure dans la transmission des savoirs sur le territoire et les différentes formes de colonisation ont érodé peu à peu l’influence des femmes.

Caring work, which is premised on caring for and caring about recipients, involves a great deal of emotion management. Feeling rules shape expectations about emotion management and are informally shared through workers’ narratives about quality work. Using qualitative data from hospice workers in the southwestern US, I find that narratives of quality within hospice include emotion-management skills such as listening, truly caring, keeping calm and maintaining boundaries. Through an analysis of how workers discuss and map skills onto individual women and men co-workers, this article highlights two gendered patterns. First, even when women and men are thought to share high-quality skills, the ways these skills are described reinforce naturalistic understandings of gender. Second, men are seen to hold a broad range of emotion-management skills, but women are not described as holding the most important emotion-management skill: keeping boundaries. Understanding this differential application of emotion-management skills helps us to understand how gender and gender inequality are reproduced within caring work. © 2017 John Wiley & Sons Ltd

"The Routledge Companion to Feminist Philosophy is an outstanding guide and reference source to the key topics, subjects, thinkers, and debates in feminist philosophy. Fifty-six chapters, written by an international team of contributors specifically for the Companion, are organized into five sections: (1) Engaging the Past; (2) Mind, Body, and World; (3) Knowledge, Language, and Science; (4) Intersections; (5) Ethics, Politics, and Aesthetics. The volume provides a mutually enriching representation of the several philosophical traditions that contribute to feminist philosophy. It also foregrounds issues of global concern and scope; shows how feminist theory meshes with rich theoretical approaches that start from transgender identities, race and ethnicity, sexuality, disabilities, and other axes of identity and oppression; and highlights the interdisciplinarity of feminist philosophy and the ways that it both critiques and contributes to the whole range of subfields within philosophy."--The publisher.

Some authors in disability studies have identified limits of both the medical and social models of disability. They have developed an alternative model, which I call the ‘composite model of disability’, to theorise societies’ ableist norms and structures along with the subjective/phenomenological experience of disability. This model maintains that ableist oppression is not the only source of suffering for disabled people: impairment can be as well. From a feminist, queer, trans activist, anti-ableist perspective and using an intersectional, autoethnographic methodology, I apply this composite model of disability to trans identities to consider the potentially ‘debilitating’ aspects of transness. I argue that transness, like disability, has too often been perceived from two perspectives, medical or social, without the benefit of a third option. From a medical perspective, transness is reduced to an individual pathology curable with hormonal/surgical treatments, a conceptualisation that erases structural oppression. From a social point of view, transness is conceptualised as a neutral condition and variation in sex/gender identity. In this model, structural oppression (transphobia/cisgenderism) is seen as the only cause of ‘trans suffering’. I argue that, just as the medical and social models of disability provide limited opportunities for reflection on the complex experience of disability, medical and social understandings of transness, respectively, are insufficient to describe the complexity of trans experience. I explore the possibilities presented by the application of a composite model of disability in trans studies. By both problematising cisgenderist oppression and acknowledging trans people's subjective experiences of suffering through some of the debilitating aspects of transness, this composite model avoids the pitfalls of the medical and social models. The application of tools from disability studies to trans issues uncovers cisnormativity in disability movements and denounces ableism in trans movements. This will, I hope, solidify alliances between these communities and fields of study.

HE MASK YOU LIVE IN follows boys and young men as they struggle to stay true to themselves while negotiating America’s narrow definition of masculinity. Pressured by the media, their peer group, and even the adults in their lives, our protagonists confront messages encouraging them to disconnect from their emotions, devalue authentic friendships, objectify and degrade women, and resolve conflicts through violence. These gender stereotypes interconnect with race, class, and circumstance, creating a maze of identity issues boys and young men must navigate to become “real” men. Experts in neuroscience, psychology, sociology, sports, education, and media also weigh in, offering empirical evidence of the “boy crisis” and tactics to combat it. The Mask You Live In ultimately illustrates how we, as a society, can raise a healthier generation of boys and young men.

No one has searched my tea leaves for answers or my stars for omens, and my palms remain unread. But people have been telling my future for years. Of fortune cookies and tarot cards they have no need: my wheelchair, burn scars, and gnarled hands apparently tell them all they need to know. My future is written on my body. In 1995, six months after the fire, my doctor suggested that my thoughts of graduate school were premature, if not misguided. He... 1 Time for Disability Studies and a Future for Crips (pp. 25-46) 1 Time for Disability Studies and a Future for Crips (pp. 25-46) https://www-jstor-org.proxy.bibliotheques.uqam.ca/stable/j.ctt16gz79x.6 What would it mean to explore disability in time or to articulate “crip time”? Temporal categories are already commonly used in formulations of disability; one aspect of cripping time might simply be to map the extent to which we conceptualize disability in temporal terms. The medical field in particular has a long tradition of describing disability in reference to time. “Chronic” fatigue, “intermittent” symptoms, and “constant” pain are each ways of defining illness and disability in and through time; they describe disability in terms of duration. “Frequency,” “incidence,” “occurrence,” “relapse,” “remission”: these, too, are the time frames of symptoms, illness,... 2 At the Same Time, Out of Time: Ashley X (pp. 47-68) 2 At the Same Time, Out of Time: Ashley X (pp. 47-68) https://www-jstor-org.proxy.bibliotheques.uqam.ca/stable/j.ctt16gz79x.7 In thinking about crip futurity, I find myself haunted by Ashley X. Born in 1997, the girl known as Ashley X was diagnosed with “static encephalopathy” a few months after her birth. “In the ensuing years,” doctors note, “her development never progressed beyond that of an infant,” and her doctors held no hope that her cognitive or neurological baseline would improve.¹ “At the age of 6 years, she [could] not sit up, ambulate, or use language.”² Concerned about their daughter’s long-term future, Ashley’s parents met with doctors in 2004 to discuss the potential effects of puberty and physical growth on... 3 Debating Feminist Futures: Slippery Slopes, Cultural Anxiety, and the Case of the Deaf Lesbians (pp. 69-85) 3 Debating Feminist Futures: Slippery Slopes, Cultural Anxiety, and the Case of the Deaf Lesbians (pp. 69-85) https://www-jstor-org.proxy.bibliotheques.uqam.ca/stable/j.ctt16gz79x.8 The pervasiveness of prenatal testing, and especially its acceptance as part of the standard of care for pregnant women, casts women as responsible for their future children’s able-bodiedness/able-mindedness; prospective parents are urged to take advantage of these services so as to avoid burdening their future children with any disabilities.¹ This notion of “burdening” children finds an echo in the debate over same-sex marriage, with LGBT couples cast as selfish parents, placing their own desires over the physical and mental health of their children (and, by extension, of all children). Moreover, according to Timothy Dailey of the Family Research Council, homosexual... 4 A Future for Whom? Passing on Billboard Liberation (pp. 86-102) 4 A Future for Whom? Passing on Billboard Liberation (pp. 86-102) https://www-jstor-org.proxy.bibliotheques.uqam.ca/stable/j.ctt16gz79x.9 “Super man,” the billboard exclaims, the unfamiliar gap between the two words emphasizing both the noun and its adjective. Below this phrase is the word “STRENGTH,” followed by the imperative “Pass It On.” At the bottom, in small print, runs the name and web address of the organization behind this public relations campaign: Values.com/Foundation for a Better Life.

In 1983,Socialist Reviewinvited several feminist theorists, among them Donna Haraway, “to write about the future of socialist feminism in the context of the early Reagan era.”¹ Haraway responded with “A Manifesto for Cyborgs,” framing the cyborg as a figure of feminist critique.² Her cyborg was a radical border-crosser, blurring the boundaries between human and animal, machine and organism, physical and non-physical.³ Such a cyborg, she argued, could “guide us to a more livable place,” an “elsewhere,” in which “people are not afraid of their joint kinship with animals and machines, not afraid... 6 Bodies of Nature: The Environmental Politics of Disability (pp. 129-148) 6 Bodies of Nature: The Environmental Politics of Disability (pp. 129-148) https://www-jstor-org.proxy.bibliotheques.uqam.ca/stable/j.ctt16gz79x.11 Although concern with the environment has long been an animating force in disability studies and activism, “environment” in this context typically refers to the built environment of buildings, sidewalks, and transportation technologies. Indeed, the social model of disability is premised on concern for the built environment, stressing that people are disabled not by their bodies but by their inaccessible environments. (The wheelchair user confronting a flight of steps is probably the most common illustration of this argument.) Yet the very pervasiveness of the social model has prevented disability studies from engaging with the wider environment of wilderness, parks, and nonhuman... 7 Accessible Futures, Future Coalitions (pp. 149-170) 7 Accessible Futures, Future Coalitions (pp. 149-170) https://www-jstor-org.proxy.bibliotheques.uqam.ca/stable/j.ctt16gz79x.12 When describing disability studies to my students, I often draw on Douglas Baynton’s insight that “disability is everywhere in history once you begin looking for it.”¹ For Baynton, “looking for it” entails not only recovering the stories of disabled people or tracing histories of disability discrimination but also exploring how notions of disability and able-mindedness/able-bodiedness have functioned in different contexts. Baynton issues his provocation to historians, but disability studies scholars in other fields have extended its reach, pushing their own colleagues to recognize disability as a category of analysis.

Terms & Conditions of Use Privacy Policy Accessibility Cookie Policy Cookie Settings Description In Feminist, Queer, Crip Alison Kafer imagines a different future for disability and disabled bodies. Challenging the ways in which ideas about the future and time have been deployed in the service of compulsory able-bodiedness and able-mindedness, Kafer rejects the idea of disability as a pre-determined limit. She juxtaposes theories, movements, and identities such as environmental justice, reproductive justice, cyborg theory, transgender politics, and disability that are typically discussed in isolation and envisions new possibilities for crip futures and feminist/queer/crip alliances. This bold book goes against the grain of normalization and promotes a political framework for a more just world.
