Description
Susana González-Martínez investigates feminist ideologies in metal music and demonstrates techniques of socio-political resistance for usage in real communities and in daily life.
This book invites a multidimensional appreciation of the artistic phenomenon of feminist metal. It sheds light on feminist artistic practices emerging from the margins of the music scenes to highlight their artistic, social, and pedagogical contribution to metal cultures and communities, to feminisms in general, and to the educational sphere. It, therefore, places the voices and wisdoms of the underground artists at the center of the conversation about feminist art, social psychology, and critical and restorative feminist pedagogies. In short, it shows what feminist metal teaches us, its strategies, ways of doing, and techniques of resistance, and how we can use them in the classroom and socio-community interventions for crucial socio-political issues. A feminist metal that can facilitate people's critical understanding of their realities, equip them with techniques and tools that assist the daily management of the difficulties of contemporary life, and enable them to contribute to their environments and communities towards a livable world for all.
