Making Ripples and Waves through Feminist Knowledge Production and Activism

Abstract

“A feminist movement is a collective political movement. Many feminisms mean many movements. A collective is what does not stand still but creates and is created by movement. I think of feminist action as ripples in water, a small wave, possibly created by agitation from weather; here, there each movement making another possible, another ripple, outward, reaching.” (Ahmed, 2007, 3).
