ABSTRACT

This essay draws from four years of ethnographic fieldwork with women activists in self-defined Paulo Freirean-based popular education schools in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Rather than leaning on the traditions of education activism, modeled on Freire’s class-based emancipatory vision, the women in this study sought to turn popular education’s focus toward intersectional oppressions that impacted girls and women in their communities. Through their anger and disillusion with the form Freirean thought had been taken up by social movements, I illustrate how participants were contemplating ways to make room for women’s experiences by pinpointing junctures of racism, sexism, and classism as they impressed upon the lives of people living and learning in precarious conditions.

摘要

这篇文章取材于在阿根廷布宜诺斯艾利斯的基于保罗·弗莱瑞恩的自定义大众教育学校中与女性活动家进行的四年民族志实地考察。本研究中的女性并没有依赖教育激进主义的传统，以弗莱雷基于阶级的解放愿景为模型，而是试图将大众教育的重点转向影响社区中女孩和妇女的交叉压迫。通过他们对社会运动所采用的 Freirean 思想形式的愤怒和幻灭，我说明了参与者如何通过精确定位种族主义、性别歧视和阶级主义的结合点来考虑如何为女性的经历腾出空间，因为它们给生活的人们的生活留下了深刻的印象。并在不稳定的条件下学习。
