I intend to interrogate the incentives behind the operationalisation of the Rose Campaign images and, in submitting the images to careful critique, analyze the utilization of repetition and citation as well as the adoption of symbols which connote certain stereotypes and affective responses. In doing so I hope to highlight the construction of meanings which are often left hidden. The Rose Campaign images are created to respond to ‘female genital mutilation’, which is understood by Amnesty International as a form of ‘violence against women’. By attempting a critical ‘reading of the rose’ which unpacks assumptions and knowledges I move toward a more nuanced investigation of NGO print imagery, submitting it to the type of dialogue increasingly advocated by feminists analyzing written text. https://escholarship.org/uc/item/6m51w7wx Fri, 8 Nov 2019 00:00:00 +0000 Roche, Nadia https://escholarship.org/uc/item/9d5201wz The Art of Living Archives:Heartographies in Queer/Feminist Historiography https://escholarship.org/uc/item/9d5201wz Fri, 17 May 2019 00:00:00 +0000 Higgins, Hannah https://escholarship.org/uc/item/9081r337 The University of California Research Cluster for the Study of Women of Color in Collaboration and Conflict was founded in 1991 by faculty and graduate students at UCSC. Reviving the cluster, and continuing and expanding this work, in 2015-2017, doctoral students from across different California institutions (UC Santa Cruz, UC Davis, UC Berkeley, Hartnell College, California State University, Long Beach) have collaborated to co-author and co-edit this journal on the theme of witnessing and testimony as a decolonial feminist methodology. This collaboration across disciplines has allowed us to build upon our diverse experiences and training as we deeply examine and push the nexus of identity, subjectivity, violence, conflict, and collaboration. https://escholarship.org/uc/item/9081r337 Fri, 17 May 2019 00:00:00 +0000 Roche, Nadia Nojan, Saugher Lopez, Claudia https://escholarship.org/uc/item/83g9n5w9 "You taught me lessons that your mother taught you..." https://escholarship.org/uc/item/83g9n5w9 Fri, 17 May 2019 00:00:00 +0000 Gonzalez, Lucero https://escholarship.org/uc/item/7wz8212g Sembrando Sudor, Piscando Conocimiento: Mi Testimonio Through the Pain and Wisdom of mi Madre https://escholarship.org/uc/item/7wz8212g Fri, 17 May 2019 00:00:00 +0000 Godinez, Rosalinda https://escholarship.org/uc/item/70c5s4wc mY [blOOd] bOdY https://escholarship.org/uc/item/70c5s4wc Fri, 17 May 2019 00:00:00 +0000 Ahmed, Istifaa O https://escholarship.org/uc/item/5w51n9h8 Youth in Elder https://escholarship.org/uc/item/5w51n9h8 Fri, 17 May 2019 00:00:00 +0000 Hughes, Kashmir https://escholarship.org/uc/item/4z28h749 Objectification and Commodification of Blackness: The (Mis)Representation of Afro-Cuban women in Figurines and Dolls https://escholarship.org/uc/item/4z28h749 Fri, 17 May 2019 00:00:00 +0000 Jimenez, Hortencia https://escholarship.org/uc/item/4h70q9ns Poems https://escholarship.org/uc/item/4h70q9ns Fri, 17 May 2019 00:00:00 +0000 Santizo, Erika https://escholarship.org/uc/item/3tr9p3mf The Embodied Wisdom of My-Five-Year-Old-Hula-Hooping-Self https://escholarship.org/uc/item/3tr9p3mf Fri, 17 May 2019 00:00:00 +0000 Rangel, Nicole https://escholarship.org/uc/item/3h46h6bt la danza del fuego: a lesson on Love https://escholarship.org/uc/item/3h46h6bt Fri, 17 May 2019 00:00:00 +0000 Beltran, Joanna https://escholarship.org/uc/item/2541r0gs How do you disclose the unrepresentable? : A Mixtec filmmaker’s approaches towards generational sexual abuse in La Tiricia O Cómo Curar la Tristeza (2012) https://escholarship.org/uc/item/2541r0gs Fri, 17 May 2019 00:00:00 +0000 Martinez, Candy https://escholarship.org/uc/item/1qg4c6xp Testimonio de Victoria https://escholarship.org/uc/item/1qg4c6xp Fri, 17 May 2019 00:00:00 +0000 Porter, Tori https://escholarship.org/uc/item/0kc77462 Consejos de una Mamá Sobresaliente: Dialogue, Reflections, and Healing between a Salvadorean-Born Mother and her U.S.-Born Daughter https://escholarship.org/uc/item/0kc77462 Fri, 17 May 2019 00:00:00 +0000 Rosales, Juanita and Christine
