This panel is a conversation between Mayra Cotta, Elif Genc, Fania Noël, and Marianna Poyares — four PhD candidates at the New School for Social Research in the fields of politics, sociology and philosophy. The panelists will discuss their respective involvement in international feminist organizing, the Kurdish women’s movement, Afro-feminism, and immigration activism. In particular, they will reflect on their work, both theoretical and practical, in a context of hostility to their cause.
