  • More about Considering Emma Goldman: Feminist Political Ambivalence and the Imaginative Archive

Emma Goldman's anarchist activism and thought are explored by Clare Hemmings in relation to contemporary feminist politics, highlighting the tensions and problems they pose while embracing them to formulate a new queer feminist praxis. She mines three overlapping archives to show how serious engagement with Goldman's political ambivalences opens up larger questions surrounding feminist historiography, affect, fantasy, and knowledge production. Hemmings also explores her personal affinity for Goldman to illuminate the role that affective investment plays in shaping feminist storytelling, presenting a queer feminist response to the ambivalences that saturate contemporary queer feminist race theories.

Emma Goldman's significance for contemporary feminist politics is explored by Clare Hemmings, who embraces the tensions and problems posed by her thinking about race, gender, and sexuality. Hemmings draws on three overlapping archives: Goldman's writings, her historical and theoretical legacy, and an imaginative archive that responds creatively to gaps in those archives. She shows how serious engagement with Goldman's political ambivalences opens up larger questions surrounding feminist historiography, affect, fantasy, and knowledge production. Additionally, Hemmings explores her personal affinity for Goldman to illuminate the role that affective investment plays in shaping feminist storytelling. By considering Goldman in all her contradictions and complexity, Hemmings presents a queer feminist response to the ambivalences that also saturate contemporary queer feminist race theories.
