Abstract or Description

‘Keeping (Revolutionary) Time: Conducting Political Counterpoints’ is a return to the question of time and difference in sexual politics, to consider whether a time for change in sexual living is truly possible. To this day, sexual violence and suffering imposes itself on individual temporal experience time and again despite mass media scrutiny in the wake of MeToo and I personally remain deeply troubled and sceptical about the legal or political interventions that promise to protect vulnerable bodies in society. Owing to the reality of slow change in sexual politics on a global scale, I return to this more traditional question of time and its relation to the body, as a means of addressing the urgent work still required in revolutionising the present condition of heteropatriarchal society.
