The lecture draws on written and oral testimonies provided by those who have made complaints within universities including complaints about racism, sexism, sexual harassment and bullying. The lecture addresses the difficulty of making complaints and asks how and why complaints are often blocked. The lecture shows how we learn about power from those who challenge power.
Sara Ahmed is an independent feminist scholar and writer. She has held academic appointments at Lancaster University and Goldsmiths, University of London. Her work is concerned with how power is experienced and challenged in everyday life and institutional cultures.
Kindly sponsored by Hull Centre for Gender Studies, Royal Institute of Philosophy, University of Hull School of Histories, Languages and Cultures.
