Violent Contradictions & Feminist Responses to the War on Gaza

Thurs April 2 and Fri April 3, 2009
William Doo Auditorium
New College, University of Toronto
45 Willcocks Street

This symposium will reflect on the recent war on Gaza and beyond. By examining the violent contradictions of war, while resisting sedimented scripts, we seek a feminist political imagination that troubles the hypocrisies of democracy, nationalisms and religion.

Participants:

Shahrzad Mojab
Vicky Moufawad-Paul
