Thickening Fat: Fat Bodies, Intersectionality, and Social Justice seeks to explore the multiple, variable, and embodied experiences of fat oppression and fat activisms. Moving beyond an analysis of fat oppression as singular, this book will aim to unpack the volatility of fat—the mutability of fat embodiments as they correlate with other embodied subjectivities, and the threshold where fat begins to be reviled, celebrated, or amended. In addition, Thickening Fat explores the full range of intersectional and liminal analyses that push beyond the simple addition of two or more subjectivities, looking instead at the complex alchemy of layered and unstable markers of difference and privilege.
Cognizant that the concept of intersectionality has been filled out in a plurality of ways, Thickening Fat poses critical questions around how to render analysis of fatness intersectional and to thicken up intersectionality, where intersectionality is attenuated to the shifting and composite and material dimensions to identity, rather than reduced to an “add difference and stir” approach. The chapters in this collection ask what happens when we operationalize intersectionality in fat scholarship and politics, and we position difference at the centre and start of inquiry.

As the global population ages, disability demographics are shifting. Societal transformation and global health inequities have changed who is likely to reach old age, who is likely to live with disability, and the relationship between aging and disability in various socio-cultural and geopolitical contexts.The Aging–Disability Nexus breaks new ground by bringing gerontology and disability studies into dialogue with each other through a variety of empirical, conceptual, and pedagogical approaches. Contributors explore the tensions that shape the way disability and aging are understood, experienced, and responded to at both individual and systemic levels, while avoiding the common tendency to conflate these overlapping elements and map them onto a normative, faulty notion of the human life trajectory. This perceptive work analyzes the distinction between aging with a disability and aging into disability, and reveals how multiple identities, socio-economic forces, culture, and community give form to our experiences.

In a culture where beauty is currency, women’s bodies are often perceived as measures of value and worth. The search for visibility and self-acceptance can be daunting, especially for those on the cultural margins of “beauty.”Becoming Women offers a thoughtful examination of the search for identity in an image-oriented world. That search is told through the experiences of a group of women who came of age in the wake of second and third wave feminism, featuring voices from marginalized and misrepresented groups.Carla Rice pairs popular imagery with personal narratives to expose the “culture of contradiction” where increases in individual body acceptance have been matched by even more restrictive feminine image ideals and norms. With insider insights from the Dove Campaign for Real Beauty, Rice exposes the beauty industry’s colonization of women’s bodies, and examines why “the beauty myth” has yet to be resolved.

Practicing the Social: Entanglements of Art and Social Justice brings together artists, activists, and scholars who use creative practice to reimagine how we live and build more just worlds. This collection centers disability, Deaf, Mad, neurodivergent, Indigenous, Black, Brown, queer, fat, and aging arts and cultures, highlighting creative practices that reconfigure the social from the ground up. Across five sections-Designing, Enacting, Troubling, Analyzing, and Transforming the Social-contributors examine how art cultivates access justice, deepens relationality, unsettles dominant narratives, and seeds alternative futures. Spanning dance, feasting, storytelling, video art, curatorial and archival activism, youth and community arts, creative pedagogies and digital worldmaking, the chapters demonstrate how creative acts intervene in colonial, white supremacist, ableist, and neoliberal systems, while opening pathways for connection, coalition, and collective flourishing. In dialogue with feminist, decolonial, and disability‑led traditions, the project is accompanied by an accessible digital archive that extends these conversations through curated multimedia offerings. Together, contributors ask: What does activist art do? Who is it for? How do access, power, and place expand what becomes possible in artful justice desiring work? The book demonstrates how creative practices can generate “ripples” of change, small, relational gestures that accumulate into counter-hegemonic possibilities. Working at the intersection of art and justice, Practicing the Social offers artists, educators, organizers, librarians, and researchers vital methods and imaginaries for reconfiguring the social in accessible and life‑affirming ways. It invites readers into everyday acts of worldmaking and into artistic interventions as catalysts for ushering in more just, difference‑embracing futures.

This transformative collection features Indigenous and settler peoples who engaged in years of circle work to unpack how colonialism affects their lives and professional practices. Circle work is an Indigenous methodology of building knowledge and challenging unexamined colonial assumptions. It reveals that de-colonizing isn’t linear; it is an embodied process that unfolds on multiple levels. The practices described in this book centre Indigegogy — a relational, land-based, spirit-centred approach to learning that invites vulnerability, reflexivity, and truth telling. While each person engages from their cultural context and position in society, every contributor shares how pivotal, “holy shit” moments during the experience of circle work have reshaped their ways of being.Guided by circle work, digital storying, and land-based teachings, this is an intimate encounter with Indigenous knowledge and lived accounts of people who chose to wake up, to feel, and to act differently in the world.
