Stephanie Ifill is a Doctoral Researcher at the University of Westminster who has been awarded the Quintin Hogg PhD Studentship in Politics. Her explorations move and overlap between feminist, racial, spatial, and decolonial theory; seeking to add to Black feminist thought from the geographical landscape of Europe.
She dualingly draws attention through her work to epistemology, and the self-in-the-everyday as both political sites. She is currently attempting an auto affect-led phenomenological approach that draws from embodied lived experience in an attempt to make sense of everyday, often overlooked, racialised encounters. As part of this work, Stephanie will be moving across geographical sites in Europe. Her exploration is diasporic, seeking to consider and centre the situatedness of the Black diaspora woman in Europe as a point of theorisation.
