Feminist Geographies Specialty Group

Glenda Laws Student Paper Award, Annie Elledge, UNC-Chapel Hill; Her paper, The Future of Corpulence: Geographies of Fatness, Medical Care, and Tomorrow, pushes feminist geographers to rethink theorizations of fat embodiment, neoliberal control of the body, as well as conceptions of “fat futures.” The awards committee was particularly impressed by the paper’s ambitious scope, which combines literatures on geographies of fatness with work on national and neoliberal embodiment, frameworks in health geographies on the violence of care, and work in Black geographies on futurity.

Jan Monk Service Award, Ann Oberhauser, Iowa State University; This award recognizes her significant service to women in geography and/or feminist geography. As a feminist scholar and mentor, Dr. Oberhauser also has a distinguished record of service to women in geography. She has served on the AAG Committee on the Status of Women in Geography, the Executive Committee of the IGU Commission, and the Executive Board of this specialty group. In this time, she played an important role in facilitating the name change of this group.

Rickie Sanders Junior Faculty Award, Caroline Faria, University of Texas, Austin, Recent Publication: Faria, C. and Whitesell, D., 2021. Global retail capital and urban futures: Feminist postcolonial perspectives. Geography Compass, 15(1): https://doi.org/10.1111/gec3.12551

Susan Hanson Dissertation Proposal Award, Vivian Deidre Rodriguez Rocha, Pennsylvania State University; Her proposal, “Counter-topographies of care: Caring activism in the movement for women’s lives in Mexico” centers the material practices of women’s protest movements against femicide in urban space in central Mexico. The committee was intrigued by the proposed investigation into how women’s intimate care-practices in and through protests rework urban landscapes and assert women’s right to the city. Further, her mixed-method approach to documenting a counter-cartography of women’s solidarities in urban space and long-term partnership with anti-violence feminist organizers on the ground exemplify a strong commitment to feminist geographical epistemologies and ethics.
