• 11:45 - Glut
  Content awareness: This session engages methodologically and theoretically with archival materials that may involve sexual violence, reproductive politics, racialised power, gendered harm, and coercion, particularly in contexts where such materials appear in uneven, repetitive, or overwhelming abundance (“archival glut”). While the focus of the session is analytical and methodological rather than descriptive, some themes may nevertheless be challenging. For those who may find it helpful, we also recommend the excellent resources produced by the Challenging Research group, which offer guidance on working with emotionally demanding archives and topics: https://challengingresearch.org/resources/
