Feminist situated scholarship as the antidote to the necrolocution

Summary, in English

Gibson asks: how do we undo the harms of this participatory turn? How can we acknowledge that the material never fully accounts for the immaterial? How do we avoid becoming ants that need to spatialize and make visible everything they research? In this piece, I argue that some of these issues can be mediated and mitigated by entering the field with a feminist epistemological stance. I provide three examples of how feminist epistemology can be mobilized at different stages of the research process as an antidote to the necrolocutor, that is, data extraction through participatory methods: cuerpo-territorio, member-checking, and data dissemination. I explicitly draw on original material, critical authors from the Global South, and novel and creative methodologies. I conclude by showing also how being reflexive and wanting to create reciprocal collaborative research relationships can result in difficult conversations with gatekeepers and ultimately in the decision not to further the research fatigue existing in some communities.
