    *situating and pluralizing feminist geographies: preserving legacies
    for future generations*//

This aim of this session is to highlight, critically discuss and 
preserve the legacies of second-wave feminist geographers from 
non-Anglophone countries and those working on the margins of the 
discipline. The history of feminist geography is often told through an 
Anglophone lens, with insufficient attention to differences between 
feminist geographers across the globe (Blidon & Zaragocin, 2019). 
Pluralizing the history of feminist geography not only brings into view 
diverse situated national// contexts and geographical traditions, but 
also marginalized forms of knowledge, including indigenous, Black and 
queer geographies (McKittrick, 2011; Mollett & Faria, 2018; Oswin, 
2020). Beyond being ‘case studies’, different social, political and 
cultural contexts have produced different geographical traditions, 
theories and concepts (Ferretti, 2020; Garcia Ramon et al., 2006). 
Unfortunately, much of this history risks being lost to time. As many of 
these scholars were not yet publishing internationally, their work lies 
untouched in university libraries, or vulnerable in private collections. 
As the 1960s generation is ageing, more and more oral histories fade. 
Engaging with and caring for the diverse histories and plurality within 
feminist geographical knowledge production is crucial to a more 
inclusive retelling of (feminist) geographical scholarship and to 
preserve this knowledge for future generations.

The session welcomes contributions which discuss

 1. History and development of feminist geographies from non-Anglophone
    and marginalized contexts, their theoretical and conceptual
    approaches, biographies and publishing practices
 2. methodological approaches, including archival methods and
    digitalization practices
 3. the integration of diverse histories of feminist geography into
    teaching and higher education curricula
