Welcome to Episode 19 of the Social Justice Salon.
In this solo episode, Marianne talks about ways of knowing and how the ideology behind our knowledge systems affects our work in social justice.
Marianne discusses how the men of the Scientific Revolution in 16th & 17th century set in stone the dominant ways of knowing that still impact how research and consultancy is done today. She outlines how certain methodologies have been given more respect and status and that this has influenced the way we all see the world.
Countering the dominant narratives are feminist, anti-racist, anti-colonial and queer methodologies which expose the power structures inherent in our accepted ways of knowing and propose new ways of doing things. Marianne takes us through these approaches and outlines practical ways to make sure social justice research is done in an equitable and ethical way.
