Monday Event: 11am PT/2pm ET/7pm UK
“On Fatphobia”: Kate Manne in conversation with Urja Lakhani
Part memoir, part polemic, and part philosophical analysis, Kate Manne’s new book, Unshrinking, shows why fatphobia has become a vital social justice issue. Over the last several decades, implicit bias has waned in every category, from race to sexual orientation, except one: body size. In this event, Manne will discuss how anti-fatness operates: how it leads us to make devastating assumptions about a person’s character, attractiveness, health, and intellect, and how it intersects with other systems of oppression.
