Socially Just Research with Young People: Creating Activist Solidarities in Times of Crisis
Counter-memory and Memorials: Reflections on the Pandemic and the Collective
Women workers and the contestation of gender roles in Vietnam's new rural factories
In Vietnam garment factories are increasingly moving to rural areas, encouraged by government incentives and labour shortages. Many factories predominantly employ women, and in this article we examine the experiences of 12 women working at a factory in their home village in northern Vietnam. Factory work, because it is in the formal sector, has made visible to the women's families and their communities that they are 'workers', in contrast to the …
Battle for truth: Poetic interruptions into symbolic violence through sound portraits

Such misrepresentations create a dominant cultural narrative that positions people of African background as violent and troubled and therefore incompatible with Australian society. Young people from various groups have been using arts-for-social-change to challenge and dismantle these imposed misrepresentation and reconstruct na…

We put forward the notion of community pedagogies to capture where these areas intersect. The different contributions that make up this special issue are examples…

On August 20, 1953, on the eve of the Aid Kabir,' the most important holiday in the Muslim year, the French sent the Moroccan King Mohammed V into exile.2 For days there had been rumors that the king would be exiled, and when it happened the country exploded. Men and women took to the streets spontaneously in mass demonstrations in cities all over Morocco. Fatna Mansour, who later joined the armed resistance in Casablanca, remembered what happene…
