Really honoured to receive this Early Career Award from the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences (KNAW) in recognition of my work on gender and complicity. Apparently combining Heidegger and feminist philosophy *does* pay. Literally.

Great last class with my feminist philosophy students talking about complicity. We discussed various examples to think about what constitutes women’s complicity in their own oppression. We had a fantastic discussion, even if my white board skills leave something to be desired…

I have had The Wombles theme tune stuck in my head for so long that I am now reading philosophy papers to the tune of ‘underground, overground wombling free… I’ve argued for a strategy of resistant agency’
Not even 9am and I’ve already rescued a swift that had accidentally flown into our living room. I think I’m done for the week

Hoe kan het dat vrouwen soms meewerken aan hun eigen onderdrukking? Filosoof Charlotte Knowles vraagt het zich af. En het is geen vrouwenprobleem, zegt ze. Ook mannen kunnen zichzelf onvrij maken. trouw.nl/religie-filosofie/h…
