Developed mainly in Western Europe and North America, this narrative to understand feminism has been used to categorise the diverse histories of womxn’s liberation movements globally. We want to move beyond this Eurocentric mode of queer feminist knowledge production. The prefix ‘re’ in re:wave signifies our dual standpoint of recognition and critique of the current intellectual cartography, as well as our commitment to redressing, reimagining, and reorienting narratives on our past, present, and future.
We can do so through traversing the boundaries of Western modes of knowledge production, locating ourselves in between rather than within the existing boundaries and becoming a site of exchange and collaboration — much like the ocean that surrounds the region and has been a vital space of cultural production in ESEA histories. re:wave can be this ocean, a learning commons for and about ESEA queer-feminist knowledge production which is shared in an accessible manner. An ocean where imagination is both directed towards and travels through.
The prefix "re" is also indicative of our commitment to constant reassessment and growth, over and over (growth not as a singular happening but as a continual required process) — an acknowledgement of our constant state of flux, and a humble understanding that there is always more for us to learn.
