Description

<p>Sara Ahmed talks with Nino about her new book,<em> The Feminist Killjoy Handbook: The Radical Potential of Getting in the Way,</em> out now from Seal Press. Ahmed is an independent queer feminist scholar of color whose work is concerned with how power is experienced and challenged in everyday life and institutional cultures. We talk about the radical potential of killing joy, complaining as an inter-temporal feminist practice, and why utopia might just be beside the point. </p> <p><br></p> <p>Get your Killjoy Handbook here: <a href="https://bookshop.org/p/books/the-feminist-killjoy-handbook-the-radical-potential-of-getting-in-the-way-sara-ahmed/19712059?ean=9781541603752" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">https://bookshop.org/p/books/the-feminist-killjoy-handbook-the-radical-potential-of-getting-in-the-way-sara-ahmed/19712059?ean=9781541603752</a></p> <p><br></p> <p>and find Sara&#39;s recommended books from UQP Press by <a href="https://www.uqp.com.au/books/another-day-in-the-colony" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Chelsea Watego </a> and <a href="https://www.uqp.com.au/books/talkin-up-to-the-white-woman-indigenous-women-and-feminism-20th-anniversary-edition" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Eileen Moreton-Robinson</a> at these links.</p> <p><br></p> <p>Sara Ahmed blogs at <a href="http://feministkilljoy.com/">feministkilljoy.com</a>.
