Gendered Bodies and Public Scrutiny by Victoria Kannen with Layla Cameron
Manage episode 333730985 series 2625030
This is the second of two episodes on Gendered Bodies and Public Scrutiny by Victoria Kannen. This time though I chatted with Layla Cameron, a fat activist based close to my hometown in Vancouver, BC, Canada. You definitely do not have to listen to the first episode to get something out of this conversation but the first conversation provides a framework of the book and of this discussion. We cover a lot of ground including:
- Layla's journey to becoming a fat activist
- Changes Layla has seen in Vancouver
- Differences between Vancouver and Toronto
- Clothing for fat people and the fat tax
- The concept of the third eye
- The elimination of fatness from the discussion in the book
- The fat spectrum
- Fat stigma as the "last" acceptable form of discrimination
- What is a body story and how does that interact with your identity
- How body positivity has been made palatable to the masses
- The Well Meaning Stranger
- Let your freak flag fly!!!
- Staring and the gaze
- What resistance means to Layla
- Fat Joy and body movement
- The ultimate radical act
