Food for thought
Ben jij ook gefascineerd door vragen als: ‘Ben ik gek of is de wereld gek?’ Hoe verhouden seksisme, racisme en psychiatrie zich tot elkaar? Wat als we stigma gewoon discriminatie noemen? En kan de herstelbeweging een vorm van verzet zijn tegen de mainstream psychiatrie? Dan heb je wellicht ook interesse in een Mad Studies leesgroep.
In deze Engelstalige Mad Studies-researchgroep duiken we samen in prikkelende teksten over psychiatrie en gekte in relatie tot eten en voeding.
We would like to invite you for a research discussion group in English. The group will read texts around themes of madness and embodiment, as well as critical phenomenology, and discuss them during the sessions. The discussion group will meet five times, on January 24th, February 7th, February 21st, March 7th, March 21st from 17.00 to 19.00. The facilitator of the group is Anjani Gupta.
What you may expect from the discussion group: We all read texts and discuss them in a group once every two weeks on the dates listed above. The discussion group is completely free, although donations to Stichting Perceval are welcome.

Gespreksleiders: Anjani en Charlotte. 
About Anjani: I am a Master’s student at UvA, studying cultural anthropology. My research explores food, madness and care for the self, asking how food can become a strategy of caring for Mad bodies. I am interested in how Mad selves are created and cultivated through bodily experiences and actions, specifically relating to food.
