Complaint! by Sara Ahmed

3.0

things can be other things BUT THAT DOES NOT MAKE Them good arguments or even good metaphor SARA AhMED
I'm so annoyed with the stylistic choices that were made here (maybe a smarter person can explain to ke why they were necessary Im open to hear it) because the content is so good and so importanf and I think many in academia, and also people outside of it, could benefit from it. And I think it is important to seriously consider and think about critical forms of communication we tend to disregard, when thinking about power relations; such as complaints. (Formal and informal). Also it was just comforting (in a sad way) reading this with my own experiences of attempting to complaint in a university context in mind. There were some incredibly powerful passages as well. Bit oh boy did iI get tired of tBut oohh boy did I get tired of the style in this one
