MERRITT Under the Direction of Tiffany King, PhD ABSTRACT This thesis articulates motherhood as both a liberal and black humanist formation that conditions black women to mother and attempts to untether maternity from the black female body. By centering maternal ambivalence—the desire and distaste for motherhood—in selected works by black women, this thesis argues that black motherhood is an ambivalent site for some black women. Motherhood can be a site of joy and displeasure; sacrifice and refusal; life and death.

Dans Les héros ne meurent jamais, Aude Léa Rapin joue avec les codes de la fiction et du documentaire pour questionner nos convictions de spectateurs. Quant à Lorcan Finnegan, il enferme Jesse Eisenberg dans Vivarium, huis clos fantastique nourri des angoisses des jeunes trentenaires d’aujourd’hui. D’autres cinéastes explorent la cellule familiale, véritable concentré de vie qui nous apprend aussi la mort. Litigante de Franco Lolli dresse le portrait poignant d’une femme confrontée à un moment crucial de sa vie. Dans Ceniza Negra, Sofía Quirós Ubeda insuffle du réalisme magique au récit initiatique d’une adolescente élevée par ses grands-parents.

    1 A JOURNEY OF HEALING: TWO-SPIRIT PEOPLES JOINING THE CIRCLE HOLISTIC WELLNESS AND RESOURCE MANUAL MARCH 2009 All Nations Hope AIDS Network - March 2009 2 ALL NATIONS HOPE AIDS NETWORK (ANHAN) A Journey of Healing: Two-Spirit Peoples Joining the Circle HOLISTIC WELLNESS AND RESOURCE MANUAL FOR TWO-SPIRIT INDIVIDUALS AND SERVICE PROVIDERS The Two-Spirit Project was financed by Non-Reserve First Nation, Inuit and Métis Communities HIV/AIDS Fund. The views expressed herein are those of the authors and not necessarily those of the funding agencies or the All Nations Hope AIDS Network. Content compiled by Wesley Keewatin, Two-Spirit Project Coordinator Edited by Bev Cardinal, Project Consultant Regina, Saskatchewan March 2009 All Nations Hope AIDS Network - March 2009 3 DISCLAIMER Many teachings introduced in the Two-Spirit Project manual were not defined by which First Nation group gave the specific teaching. Each teaching is only a reference and each individual is invited to find his/her own identity within his/her own First Nation group. The teachings vary from nation to nation although there are similarities. These teachings were introduced to show the significance of the teachings and how they may apply today. It is very important for the individual to find his/her own First Nation’s teachings because it is in the relevance of the teachings that connections are made with our ancestral memory. It is with this connection that the healing journey begins for many Aboriginal people. This manual also relies heavily on external sources and materials. Every effort has been made to accurately identify and credit the primary sources of this information.

This year we had an opportunity to get to know one another even better and break internal barriers that are inevitable for such diverse and wide-spread network as ours. This year meeting's overarching theme was solidarity & sisterhood: between countries, cultures and generations. We brought together African, Latina, Arab, Asian and European voices and the youngest of our participants celebrated her 14th birthday in Rabat. For three days, we worked - individually and collectively - on ourselves and our network's capacity to create a strong vision of the world in which women are afforded the space to generate, lead and sustain real positive change. We did this through feminist consciousness raising, critical debate, physical exercise and art. This report is a summary of activities and moments that filled this meeting in Rabat with reflections, laughter, tears and most beautiful memories...Thank you everyone who made this possible ! "We should always strive to identify leaders among migrant women. We should support them and encourage to be active not only in their communities but wider political life. A lot of these leaders are here with us in the network. We should not be afraid to put ourselves forward, be nominated, run for positions of power...even if we don't succeed it is important to be role models and send a message to other migrant women that our leadership is possible.."

    Notes Introduction 1. Katie G. Cannon, “The Emergence of Black Feminist Consciousness,” in Feminist Interpretation of the Bible, ed. Letty M. Russell (Louisville, KY: Westminster Press, 1985); Renita J. Weems, Just a Sister Away: Understanding the Timeless Connection between Women of Today and Women in the Bible (West Bloomfield, M: Walk Worthy Press, 1988); Jacquelyn Grant, White Women’s Christ and Black Women’s Jesus: Feminist Christology and Womanist Response (Atlanta: Scholars Press, 1989); and Delores S. Williams, Sisters in the Wilderness: The Challenge of Womanist God-Talk (New York: Orbis Books, 1993). 2. This date marks the publication of Katie G. Cannon’s essay, “The Emergence of Black Feminist Consciousness” first published in Letty M. Russell, ed., Feminist Interpretation of the Bible (Louisville, KY: Westminster Press, 1985), 30–40. 3. Grant, White Women’s Christ and Black Women’s Jesus, 209. 4. For more on first-wave womanist perspectives on Christian categories, includ- ing sacrifice, servanthood, and unmerited suffering, see Williams, Sisters in the Wilderness; Grant, White Women’s Christ and Black Women’s Jesus; and Weems, Just a Sister Away. 5. In addition to these fields, womanism critically engages a variety of disci- plines and theological perspectives by helping to expose ways in which racist- classist-sexist-heterosexist and other oppressive norms may operate within the approaches, methods, and studies of various perspectives within religion. 6. For more information on the argument of this sort, see Katie G. Cannon, Black Womanist Ethics (Atlanta: Scholars Press, 1988). 7. Contrary to the attitudes of some white feminists who saw themselves as “sep- aratists” and noninclusive of men, Walker’s term “womanist” suggests that including black men in the movement of affirming black women is essential.

  • Form Vision Hans Theys
    Form Vision Hans Theys Form Vision Artists on Art Tornado Editions 2019 To Tamara Van San In 1983, a fellow student handed me this Banda copy, suggesting it might be interesting for me – as an aficionado of art and literature – to study the writings of Kafka without interpreting them. The origin of the book you are holding now lies within this generous gesture. Thirty years later, when I accidently rediscovered it, I realised that the text quotes a book by Susan Sontag, translated and typewritten by an unknown hand. Everyone has a sort of individual form vision. In all the greatest artists the seeds of this form vision has been present even in their early work, and to some extent their work has been a gradual unfolding of this rhythm throughout. (…) It’s something the artist can’t control – it’s his make up. (…) The less conscious you are of your own individual form rhythm, the more likely it is, I think, to get richer and fuller and develop. Henry Moore, 1941 What is important now is to recover our senses. We must learn to see more, to hear more, to feel more. Our task is not to find the maximum amount of content in a work of art, much less to squeeze more content out of the work than is already there. Our task is to cut back content so that we can see the thing at all. (…) The function of criticism should be to show how it is what it is, even that it is what it is, rather than to show what it means.
