Empowering (dis)Coloured Female Bodies Via Food Pedagogy

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

To be able to understand and respond to a sociological issue, we must first find the source. To be able to offer options for a change, we must first listen. (dis)Coloured bodies have held a significant, but extremely unequal place in the Canadian society for decades. This book places a primary focus on women's studies and the (dis)coloured female body. As an inter-disciplinarian academic, I begin this book with a brief historical dig, which serves to highlight past causes to current effects. History, along with politics and governance are therefore used to identify some of the sources of numerous modern-day discriminatory practices. The book addresses bodies cross-culturally and multi-ethnicities, with theories ranging from sociology, communication, anthropology, psychosocial, and lifespan development, to name a few. Finally, having presented information on the source that allows for an understanding of the problem, and having self-reflectively and experientially listened, I conclude with options for change and empowerment of (dis)coloured female bodies via my theory of food kinship, and my socio-pedagogical methodology of slocalization.
