Beskrivelse

What is Fat Activism and why is it important?

Charlotte Cooper, a fat activist with around 30 years experience, answers this question by lifting the lid on a previously unexplored social movement and offering a fresh perspective on one of the major problems of our times.

In her expansive grassroots study she:

Reveals details of fat activist methods and approaches and explodes myths

Charts extensive accounts of international fat activist historical roots going back over four decades

Explores controversies and tensions in the movement

Shows that fat activism is an undeniably feminist and queer phenomenon

Explains why fat activism presents exciting possibilities for anyone interested in social justice

Fat Activism: A Radical Social Movement is a rare insider’s view of fat people speaking about their lives and politics on their own terms. It is part of a new wave of accessible, accountable and rigorous work emerging through Research Justice and the Para-Academy.

This is the book you have been waiting for.
