Title : Living The Edges : A Disabled Women's Reader Material Type: printed text Authors: Diane Driedger, Author Publisher: Inanna Publications Publication Date: 2010 ISBN (or other code): 978-1-926708-17-1 Languages : English (eng) Descriptors: Disability/Ableism & Accessibility
FeminismKeywords: disabled women Abstract: This important and ground-breaking collection brings together the diverse voices of women with various disabilities, both physical and mental. Here, Canadian women speak frankly about the societal barriers they encounter in their everyday lives due to social attitudes and physical and systemic inaccessibility. They bring to light the discrimination they experience through sexism, because they are women, and through ableism, because they have disabilities. For them, the personal is definitely political. While society traditionally views having a disability as "weakness" and that women are the "weaker" sex, this collection points to the strength, persistence, and resilience of disabled women living the edges.

Trans, Genderqueer and IntersexAbstract: A ragtag group of women protesting behind a police line in the rain. A face in a crowd holding a sign that says, "Hi Mom, Guess What!" at a gay rights rally. Two lovers kissing under a tree. These indelible images are among the thousands housed in the New York Public Library's archive of photographs of 1960 and '70s LGBTQ civil rights movement. Davies, in turn, is one of the most important photojournalists who documented gay, lesbian, and trans liberation, as well as civil rights, feminist, and antiwar movements.
This powerful collection - -which captures the energy, humour, and humanity of the groundbreaking protests that surrounded the Stonewall Riots - celebrates the diversity of this rights movement, both in the subjects of the photos and by presenting Lahusen and Davies' distinctive work and perspectives in conversation with each other. A preface, captions, and part introductions from curator Hason Baumann provide illuminating historical context. And an introduction from Roxane Gay, bestselling author of Hunger, speaks to the continued importance of these iconic photos of resistance.Love and Resistance: Out of the Closet into the Stonewall Era [printed text] / Jason Baumann, Editor . - [S.l.] : W.

Title : MAY REVUE Material Type: printed text Authors: Fulvia Carnevale, Author Edition statement: 16 Publication Date: 10/2016 ISBN (or other code): REPCAR2016 Languages : English (eng) Descriptors: Feminism
Reproductive LabourKeywords: Reproductive Labour, Aesthetics, Feminism, Refusal, Italy, France Abstract: "This issue, realized with Claire Fontaine, positions itself in the many continuities of a previous one—*May* no. 4, published in October 2010, that presented a selection of foundational resources from the Italian feminist movements of the 1970s and 1980s (with texts by the Milan Women's Bookstore, Carla Lonzi, Lea Melandri, Antonella Nappi, etc.) At the time, Fulvia Carnevale, an assistant of Claire Fontaine, and the guest editor-in-chief, edited the group of texts and signed the introduction. Given a lack of time and means, the texts were only published in English. For this issue, we have decided to put the French translations online a few weeks after publication. The texts published here are for the most part interventions from two London symposiums that took place in 2015 and 2016, whose specific issues Claire Fontaine's introductory text will illuminate. A number of these essays take direct inspiration from the textual sources introduced in *May 4.* With this second chapter, the revue seeks to trace an editorial line more emphatically marked by feminist questions stemming from this Italian history and to re-interrogate complex concepts such as self-abolition, self-consciousness and separatism—or, to cite Marina Vishmidt, to contribute towards a 'way of thinking the affirmative and negative moments of any radical emancipatory movement.'"—from the preface MAY REVUE [printed text] / Fulvia Carnevale, Author . - 16 . - 10/2016.
