This course explores the shifting, open, and curious questions around “praxis” (the act of theorizing and practicing simultaneously). Our examination will dive into readings that offer a range of antiracist-intersectional-transnational feminist and queer perspectives.
Thematic explorations include– what it means to do “ethical” research; exploring the problematics of ‘doing good’ for ‘others’; unpacking the non-profit industrial complex; examining “critical transnational feminist praxis”; thinking through complex accountabilities; and finally, imagining and working towards solidarities across many faultlines of complicity and privilege.
Below you can find the projects of students who explored the struggle related to a social justice movement either in the U.S. or elsewhere
