Ecofeminist Fridays (Melbourne)

11 Jan Ecofeminist Fridays (Melbourne)

Sit and read or listen with EcoFeminist Fridays at the University of Melbourne. Our weekly ‘read-ins’ aim to create a kind of refuge for critical ecological feminist thought and action. In the first half of 2018, we will be reading aloud, as a collective, from the opening of Karen Barad’s groundbreaking work of theoretical physics and feminist theory, Meeting the Universe Halfway (2007). Bring your own copy of the text to read from, or share with a member of the group. 
 
EcoFeminist Fridays is convened by Dr. Hayley Singer, and made up of small group of artists and scholars who are committed to traversing the texts that make up the histories of critical ecological feminist thought and action. We are driven by the need to engage in slow, emergent and collective modes of learning. Together, we work with the idea that reading aloud is a generous and generative act, which inspires wild conversations and stirs up unexpected stories from participants.
