Beyond Traditions: Stories, Struggles and Uprisings of Women in Contemporary India (Vortrag/englisch)

Structures of caste, class, patriarchy, and colonialism define Indian women's lives. Multiple feminist struggles in India are creating ripples of change by reclaiming public spaces, asserting pleasure, and challenging Brahmanical patriarchy and incarceration at home and in institutions, as seen in movements like Pinjra Tod. Dalit protests and movements are reshaping understandings of identity, difference, and intersectionality. This talk delves deeper into the lives of today’s Indian women, exploring their struggles, challenges, reflections, hopes, and dreams.
