SUMMARY:Voices of Struggle: LGBTQ & Feminist Activism in China and Beyond
DESCRIPTION:Voices of Struggle: LGBTQ & Feminist Activism in China and Beyond\nVoices of Struggle explores the complex entanglements between activism and academia in transnational perspective. What does it mean to be an engaged or activist scholar today? How should we think about the connections/separations between the two spheres of activism and academia? And how can activists and academics best combine their strengths to effect change? In what ways are deepening transnational connections re-shaping the practice of activism around the globe? This two day event brings together leading scholars and activists to discuss these questions in relation to the development of feminism and LGBTQ activism in China and beyond. \nEvent is free to the public. No registration is needed. \nWorkshop: April 17\, 13:30 – 18:15\nVenue: Emmy-Noether-Saal\, Tagungs- und Veranstaltungshaus Alte Mensa\, Wilhelmsplatz 3\, Göttingen \nParticipants：\nBao Hongwei (University of Nottingham)\nHarriett Evans (University of Westminster)\nLi Tingting (Activist\, London)\nKimberley Manning (Concorida University)\n \n  \nFilm Screening: April 18\, 18:00 – 20:00\nLocation: ZHG 002 \nVachina Monologues 来自阴道\nFanPopo|28’|2013\nDocumentary China\nLanguage: Mandarin\nSubtitles: English \nParticipants:\nBao Hongwei (University of Nottingham)\nFan Popo (Filmmaker\, Berlin)\nLi Tingting (Activist\, London) \n  \nProgram:\nA first roundtable session\, featuring Harriet Evans (Westminster) and Kimberley Manning (Concordia)\, explores the history and development of feminism in relation to politics and state power in China.
