Utilising the framework of feminist philosophy\, authors Ann J. Cahill and Christine Hamel approach the phenomenon of voice as a lived\, sonorous and embodied experience marked by the social structures that surround it\, including systemic forms of injustice such as ableism\, sexism\, racism\, and classism. By developing novel theoretical constructs such as “intervocality” and “respiratory responsibility\,” Cahill and Hamel cut through the static between theory and praxis and put forward exciting theories on how human vocal sound can perpetuate — and challenge — persistent inequalities. With ANN CAHILL\, CHRISTINE HAMEL\, and TONA BROWN.
