Feminism is a praxis, a theory, methodology and pedagogy that engages with anti-oppressive struggles as interlinked and connected by the common denominator of experiencing the oppressions of white supremacist capitalist patriarchal power and domination. Feminism has challenged the structures of globalization, capitalism, and neoliberalism and how they have impacted women and other oppressed populations, their labor practices, and mainstream conceptions of the self and the therapeutic. This presentation engages with the concept of 鈥渇eminisms鈥 and how each presenter came to define feminism as a personal and political identity and methodology. This will be followed by two case studies to examine the application of feminist pedagogy and听to trouble practices of care that attend to false conditions of safety and protection in the face of systemic oppression and violence. Suggestions for healthy critique and implications for arts therapies practice and its impact will be shared.
