Talking Bodies IV - Rage and Care Against the Machine

Talking Bodies IV: Rage and Care Against the Machine is a bold intervention against global antifeminism. In their contributions, scholars, artists and activists from around the world - with their specific embodied perspectives - expose systems of oppression they come up against with despair, fear, exhaustion and rage. Instead of fixing what''s trying to break them, they call out violent norms in order to make them assailable and ultimately overcome them. Emerging from a global community that first came together at Talking Bodies, an international, interdisciplinary project with a biennial conference, this new volume continues the ethos of this community, striving to improve equality and equity for different bodies, by exploring how we move through and negotiate with the world around us.
