Feminist Decoloniality As Care (FEMDAC)
FEMDAC brings together a network of Black women scholars in a community of practice (CoP) as a creative and supportive space. In and across South Africa and the USA*, we collaborate to critically challenge and disrupt the neocolonial and patriarchal foundations of the neoliberal corporate university. We seek to nurture new institutional cultures that embrace feminist decoloniality as care.
1 We aim to grow the FEMDAC network and expand to other countries in the future.
