We are excited to present Episode 8 of the Bangladesh Feminist Oral History Project, an initiative by the Bangladesh Feminist Archives that documents and amplifies the voices of Bangladeshi feminists across generations.
In this episode, we speak with Dr. Nasrin Khandoker, a feminist anthropologist, writer, and educator whose work spans gender, sexuality, migration, embodiment, affect, and postcolonial critique.
Dr. Khandoker received her PhD in Anthropology from Maynooth University, Ireland, and currently works as a Postdoctoral Researcher in the CyberSocial project, where she explores feminist digital activism and online gender-based violence in South Asia. She has also served as an Associate Professor at Jahangirnagar University and is widely published in both academic and public spheres.
This conversation explores how feminist scholarship can push boundaries, challenge power, and make space for stories that often go unheard.
Topics Discussed:
-Nasrin’s journey through feminist anthropology and academia
-Transnational perspectives on migration, gender, and power
-The role of emotion, body, and affect in feminist theory
-Digital feminism, online violence, and resistance through research
-Reflections on writing, teaching, and feminist responsibility
About the Project:
