Kate Manne: Fighting Fatphobia
Manage episode 439451227 series 2342985
Anti-fatness is a system of oppression, argues Kate Manne, afflicting vulnerable bodies in intersectional ways.
Building on her incisive studies of misogyny and male privilege, the Melbourne-born feminist philosopher’s latest book, Unshrinking: How to Fight Fatphobia, unpicks the dangerous virtues associated with dieting and deprivation, using a blend of first-hand stories and trenchant analysis.
Praised by US writer Roxane Gay as “required reading”, this timely intervention calls for a radical re-evaluation of who our bodies exist for – ourselves and no one else.
Learn from an acclaimed, accessible new voice in moral philosophy, in conversation with host Maeve Marsden.
This episode was recorded live in May at the 2024 Sydney Writers’ Festival.
