Routes to Liberation
"Decentering the Margins" proposes a methodological and ideological shift. Instead of maintaining a central, mainstream perspective, the focus is on acknowledging and amplifying the voices and experiences of those on the margins, critically reflecting on the movement from the margin to the center which can potentially reproduce elements of power, i.e. new centers and matrices of power. The goal is to identify and implement effective and sustainable routes or strategies that lead to the liberation of marginalized groups from systemic oppression, fostering a more inclusive and equitable society. This approach encourages a broader understanding of diverse experiences and challenges the status quo by actively working towards social justice and equality.
