A Feminist Framework for Research · Full Stack Feminism A Feminist Framework for Research – Key Methods and Praxis (Overview)

Over the coming weeks we will highlight current contributions to the Full Stack Feminism toolkit. Remember, we are actively seeking contributions so please contact us if interested. First up, written by @swebb.bsky.social & @izzyfox.bsky.social 'A Feminist Framework for Research' (Dec. 2022)

The FSF toolkit aims to develop, document, & share methods & approaches to developing tools/systems/code which consider intersectional feminist, queer, & anti-racists values. As such, @swebb.bsky.social writes about inclusive metadata & considers the importance of language in data & archives

Archives are political, therefore, 'Writing or developing inclusive metadata requires us to think critically about language, representation, stewardship (versus ownership), historical...contexts, exclusions & silences from the historic record, about ethics, as-well as power dynamics and privileges'

Naji's article focuses on Shaowen Bardzell’s seminal 2010 Feminist Human Computer Interaction paper, among others. Bardzell lists participation, advocacy, ecology, pluralism, embodiment & self disclosure as values of feminist HCI design, these are discussed with relation to the FSF toolkit...

Samuels Library in Virginia was defunded after the far-right group “clean up samuels library” made a list of books and demanded their immediate removal. My book, A Snake Falls to Earth, is on the ban list. It is the first book by a Native author to win a Newbery honor.
