Sara Ahmed: Travelling with Feminist Killjoys

In this lecture I reflect back on my experience of writing The Feminist Killjoy Handbook (forthcoming with Seal Press, 2023). I explore how the feminist killjoy turned up in my own work, explain why I describe her as my companion, and clarify what I mean by “killing joy as a world making project.” I offer some killjoy survival tips and show how experiences of killing joy give us some of the resources and skills we need to navigate an unjust world and to build more open and less-hostile institutions.
