Gender, Sexuality and Violence in South African Educational Spaces (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2021): Deevia Bhana, Shakila Singh,... Gender, Sexuality and Violence in South African Educational Spaces (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2021)
Deevia Bhana, Shakila Singh, Thabo Msibi
R4,240 Discovery Miles 42 400 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

The book focuses on the ways in which gendered and sexualised systems of power are produced in educational settings that are framed by broader social and cultural processes, both of which shape and are shaped by children and young people as they interact with each other. All these nuanced features of gender and sexuality are vital if we are to understand inequalities and violence, and fundamental to our three-ply yarn approach in this book. Focusing on the South African context, but with international relevance, the authors adopt the metaphor of the three-ply yarn (Jordan-Young, 2010): these being the cross-cutting themes of gender, sexuality and violence. Subsequently, the book illustrates the intimate ties that bind gender and sexuality with the social and cultural dimensions of violence, as experienced in educational settings.

Hidden Sexualities of South African Teachers - Black Male Educators and Same-sex Desire (Paperback): Thabo Msibi Hidden Sexualities of South African Teachers - Black Male Educators and Same-sex Desire (Paperback)
Thabo Msibi
R1,367 Discovery Miles 13 670 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

South Africa remains a global leader in the legislative protection of individuals who engage in same-sex relations, and is the only country in Africa where the rights of these individuals are explicitly recognized and protected by the constitution. Yet South Africa's identities are still contested and evolving, particularly for same-sex desiring teachers - many are forced to locate their sexualities privately for fear of being ostracized, bullied or losing their jobs, resulting in the miseducation of young people in schools. This volume reveals the various ways in which black South African male teachers construct their sexual and professional identities, how they accommodate structural dictates while simultaneously resisting them, and the effect this has on students. Presenting the day-to-day experiences of eight same-sex desiring teachers within repressive contexts, this volume challenges the Western origins and assumptions of queer theory, particularly its inability to confront communal forms of social organizing and its focus on individual agency. It asks for more socially responsive theorizing that takes into account the role played by location, race, class, gender and sexual identification within South African and international contexts.
