Gender Abolition, Limits of Sikh Feminism, and Critique

This paper reflects on Sikh feminist critique and its mobilization of egalitarianism as a horizon. In doing so, I explore how Sikh onto-epistemologies unsettle liberal conceptions of equality, critique, and justice. By problematizing the very system and construct of gender, I orient gender abolition as a horizon to ask the question, what can Sikhi teach us about gender abolition? In analyzing the life around this question, I think through ethics of academic production in its engagement with Sikhi.

Abstract

This paper reflects on Sikh feminist critique and its mobilization of egalitarianism as a horizon. In doing so, I explore how Sikh onto-epistemologies unsettle liberal conceptions of equality, critique, and justice. By problematizing the very system and construct of gender, I orient gender abolition as a horizon to ask the question, what can Sikhi teach us about gender abolition? In analyzing the life around this question, I think through ethics of academic production in its engagement with Sikhi.
