This makes much more sense than most of the things around me. This makes you smile and nod warmly. It's a rare sort of feelings. Thanks to all the people who made this video available here.
It's striking how deeply seeded my aversion to asking for help is. And watching her gracefully ask for help without performing shame or bashfulness is radical in a way I had not anticipated.
This short film reminds us of the importance of the "Sociological Imagination" in terms of using our imaginative thinking to understand the relationship between the individual (the dis-abled person) and exclusionary practices in today's society. Public issues that lie beyond one's personal control; rooted in the design of public spaces and general ignorance of dis-ability and the lack of accessibility. However, the social imagination can also help raise awareness and encourage political action to improve inclusion across the board, particularly for people with dis-abilities. Thanks Sunaura and Judith for a very reflective/examined life walk concerning disability, gender, and the Other!
This was my favorite part of the whole film. I watched this clip with my 8 yr-old daughter so she could understand something about "ableism" and why disabled, or differently-abled people deserve respect, rights and opportunities the same way as anyone else. And yes "help", just as we all need help. Thanks for this eye and heart-opening talk!
I used to absolutely hate Judith Butler. Now I don't know why. She is such a cool person. She just gives off this humble, contemplative, intelligent, and warm personality.

She's always been that person. Shes also as always been mistaken about social constructions
Her writing is pretentious and inaccessible word salad designed to intimidate the reader into thinking they're just not smart enough to get it. She's a dumb person's idea of a smart person.
Dru Smith Listening to Judith speak, they seem really intelligent, but for some reason they get trapped in the pitfalls of academic pretentiousness when writing. It’s easier to watch or listen to one of Judith’s lectures than it is to read their work.
It is so nice and endearing and warm to see these two women walking together, talking about details of how human beings interact with each other and how a disabled person sees herself in relation with other human beings, really nice.
This video reminds us, this is not an "abstract" idea. We're talking about life here. Real people, real life, and that response to others which ultimatly defines who we are.
This is at the root of this countries political debate, where one side imagines themselves "independant" and "self sufficient", and finds fault with the very notion of society as an expression of our collective experience. "Well being" is privatized and the challenges faced by others are their problem. It boils down to whether we see our social system as a means to express our hostility towards eachother, or as a consruct by which we affirm and honor eachothers lives.
I found the "human interdependency" question quite provoking. Everyone does need help, and it's quite alienating to think about life without it. Although, the extent to which we rely on one another is quite shallow, and to see more of it exercised would be a nice change. I worked at a coffee shop before and served an impaired woman by getting the change out of her purse for her, refilling her water and holding it to her mouth, and wiping her mouth after she had eaten the cake she purchased.
I saw this movie when it was released and met the maker. Sunaura not only outshines Judith, but this scene makes Cornell and Zizek into the set up. I think Astra does this deliberately because she loves her sister. I’ll see the new film ASAP.
hi, if i wanted to do the spanish subtitles...what do I have to do? I'm in Argentina, and many people desist of watching the whole video because the don't speaks english very well...
Introspective discussions are beyond some peoples understanding and boring to others who think that the epiphanies are clearly evident. The questions posed in this discussions need to be asked and discussed because not everyone is humane. There is hope as the Millennial's display the most empathy of any generation yet and don't tolerate injustice.
Hi, RUclips has discontinued community contribution since September 28, 2020 across all RUclips Channels. But you can still send me the subtitles file you create, and I'll upload it.
maybe, if you take the meaning of her words and extrapolate them beyond the issue of disability. I think in this case she was very specifically referring to disability. Secondly, she only said that "your disability brings up the issues of individualism within society" not that she took a particular stance on the issue. I love this stuff. Although I don't particularly appreciate how complicated the language can become.
I haven't read Judith Butler yet. I just discovered her, and I understand her books are challenging. I think that since natural selection is incontrovertible, any "religious" views that certain biological attributes and specific behaviors (analyzed outside of their value to promote our lives) are necessarily more moral than others, are rubbish. The pope and the evangelicals have a little thinking to do.
i agree almost completely up until that last conclusion. individualism i think is crucial to that richness of difference that people like butler revindicate. the idea of everyone helping everyone as some sort of imperative above and beyond anything else is potentially destructive.
This is the whole segment; it's one segment from Astra Taylor's film The Examined Life, which features other philosophers as well, each speaking for ~10 minutes.
Do you know who else has limited housing options and career opportunities? Poor people, regardless of gender, race, level of impairment . Yet ,identity politics ignores the problem and focuses solely on the advancement of rights of small groups in an system which is fundamentally unjust.
I spent 30 years working with the "learning disabled population...er, consumers, er, individuals, er, costumers, er, patients..." and none of the label changes put 2 more cents into their help and care. But it sure was great for academics and politicians. --- This is 3 star virtue posing and manipulation. Essence of Creme de Bull.
this was interesting..reminded me of the book by ralph pettman 'going for a walk in the world': i have had interesting experiences as someone who is part Japanese and I look that way as well. When I asked for a glass of water at a fast food counter...the girl serving me wanted to charge me for it. When I asked what I was paying for...she claimed that it was the ice. I felt like dousing her with the contents of the cup I had in my hand. But, I didn't. I also found I didn't have 50cents..
You are talking to someone with philosophy, religion, mythology and cults, logic, Latin, Old greek and Hebrew university studies and this person happens to think your statement are pure idiocy. Mind you, not ignorance - because the ignorant doesn't know but has access to knowledge, whereas the idiot knows but has no access to knowledge. If you still don't get this, you also fall in the latter category.
I don't think most people mind helping out a handicap person. I do think some people would care if they have to change there life or help out trans people when their capable of helping themselves. It's not a one to one comparison. it's like I get a flat tire, flag someone down ask for help and then watch them do it, the whole time knowing how to change a tire...
You're an anarchist? The language you use in the post below is inherently oppressive; you're not an anarchist, you're a patriarchal sexist. Second, there's not much you can deduce from one sentence from someone you've never met. She doesn't disregard biology, Butler isn't talking about the biological aspects, they're talking about the social. Leave your antiquated notions of gender on some Glenn Beck video or something.
To force your opinion on another is what feminism is all about. It's about empowering cognitive abilities - sustained by the feminine sex - in the detriment of moral abilities - sustained by the masculine sex. When the shift for feminity happens - we speak of sensible obligation, of shushing "masculine", rough opinion in the detriment of "saving face". We are talking about even concealing truth in the name of "not offending". Which is pretty much what you did to that lad with that response.

So why did u hate her?
T Clark can you elaborate on that?

What an articulate woman Sunaura is. She has clear, orderly, thoughtful, educational thinking behind her communication.
taking a walk with judith butler is now on my bucket list
learning to ask for help has a big thing for me, it's been difficult but rewarding and enabling, so very glad to hear of it talked about.
It is so nice and endearing and warm to see these two women walking together, talking about details of how human beings interact with each other and how a disabled person sees herself in relation with other human beings, really nice.
I would totally watch 'Shopping with Judith Butler'. I love her jacket so much.
Great video, really eye opening.
"Shop, Talk, and Walk" stroll, bike, skip, or whatever form of transportation one uses to move from one spot to another
Such a wonderful video that taught me something more about life! I wish that one day I can meet Judy in real life, she is the smartest person ever!
Very interesting and modern discussion about our societies. We need to deal with this important questions.
This is my favorite interview of the whole film - it's more personal and warm.
Brilliant.
Filming done so well too! Walking - wonderful metaphor.
And thanks for the quality captioning (my language being deafened).
This was beautiful it really was. It's expression of interconnectivity and need for others is a very strong message
FYI the Deleuze essay: Expressionism in Philosophy: Spinoza (p. 217-234)
+Connie Huang Thank you! I have been looking for this essay for months!
Help is something we all need... Sunara is such a beautiful soul..
no one should ever be bullied! very cool video !
Love the examined life... been watching it over and over again. Love this one and the section with Dr West most tho
What a beautiful walk, amazing personalities, defenitly the kind of person I want to become !
The thing about accessibility directly feeding into social acceptance is great, I should remember that
Still love this video... it is so perfect! I used it in teaching undergrads.
Thank you, really thought provoking
judith butler is absolutely AMAZING.
This video reminds us, this is not an "abstract" idea. We're talking about life here. Real people, real life, and that response to others which ultimatly defines who we are.
Sunaura should work as a voice over O.O Her voice is really pleasing :D
Aye yo who here doing their discussion board right now?
😂😂
Such a beautiful person, to think that someone may have thought she was too much of a burden on a family/society to bring into the world.

Amazing video.
I think this goes at the very heart of the debate between welfare and socialist ideals and capitalist individual ideals, very interesting
somehow...over the years...i've fallen in love with Judith Butler.
wtf?
Butler has provided many a-hah moments for me. That's a beautiful thing to give someone
I saw this movie when it was released and met the maker. Sunaura not only outshines Judith, but this scene makes Cornell and Zizek into the set up. I think Astra does this deliberately because she loves her sister. I’ll see the new film ASAP.
Absolutely love this! AND you, Sunny!! And you, now, too, Judith Butler; would love to chat!!! ~ the Weasel, Grand Rapids ADAPT
This is absolutely wonderful!
Uma esperiencia vivida com dificuldades e limitações
"Yeah I think this would probably fall off my shoulders"
*Judith ignores her*
"Yeah I guess we could try it on"
lol
bravetherainbow haha i noticed that too
hi, if i wanted to do the spanish subtitles...what do I have to do? I'm in Argentina, and many people desist of watching the whole video because the don't speaks english very well...
Does Judith look a bit like Tony Hawk

Man this is just beatiful
Judith Butler looks like Michael Douglas
I thaught exactly the same.
Good documentary. And I really liked this part :)
Judith Butler reminds me of Richard from Curb your Enthusiasm.
hi, would you please enable the option so that i can make spanish subtitles?
Hi, RUclips has discontinued community contribution since September 28, 2020 across all RUclips Channels. But you can still send me the subtitles file you create, and I'll upload it.
I'm watching this ten minutes before class ☺
@timetochilli How exactly? This video focuses mainly on how people with disabilities are viewed in our culture.
Think of all the things Judith has done for the world... I think se is a beautiful wonderful person. Judith I love you, I thank you!
I wonder if the person att 10:10 is yawning or being star struck by JB
Can someone tell me what is going on here? Im lost
wow that was amazing

shit, now i want to take a walk with judith butler.
Wow, Sunaura is totally out doing Judith in relevance here.
Where can I find the essay "What can a body do"?
✊🏼 antispeciesim ✊🏼 antiableism ✊🏼 antisexiesm ✊🏼 antiracism ✊🏼antiageism ✊🏼
can anyone find a link to the deleuze essay she's discussing?
Judith Butler looks like Jeremy Hardy
i agree almost completely up until that last conclusion. individualism i think is crucial to that richness of difference that people like butler revindicate. the idea of everyone helping everyone as some sort of imperative above and beyond anything else is potentially destructive.
are you blind to the fact that there are many different ideas of what constitutes 'hot'
anyone know where the full clip of this is or if there even is an extension to this lol
This is the whole segment; it's one segment from Astra Taylor's film The Examined Life, which features other philosophers as well, each speaking for ~10 minutes.
thanks :)
a cigar is never just a cigar...
Nice sweater
Do you know who else has limited housing options and career opportunities? Poor people, regardless of gender, race, level of impairment . Yet ,identity politics ignores the problem and focuses solely on the advancement of rights of small groups in an system which is fundamentally unjust.
You haven't read any Judith Butler?
@Mael3rd this sounds like it belongs on a Feminist Ryan Gosling meme
I fundamentally disagree with Butler on a lot, but I'd like to see her in more debates with right leaning thinkers.
captions?
i agree with you sullen boy!
12:35 ❤
Judith Butler looks kinda like Andy Warhol here. That's pretty awesome
LOL "it's by weight" ..."can we guess"?
have you listened to any of Butler's ideas on gender???
why in the world would you sell clothing by weight
Knowledge..
13:08 FTW
total disregard for biology? 12:15-20? ;)
So, gender and accesibility. Great, Butler!
i actually felt Butler seemed a bit condescending here
wonderful humans,id like to walk with them.
i use my feet as hands way more when im at home. also going up stairs on all fours is infinitely better than balancing on two limbs
@akma632 As Iggy Pop said: give me danger!

Yes, I did. So what?
Who ist this old Man in the black Jacket??
four dollars for that ? come on san fucksisco
I agree too.

Judith seems like such a nerd, lol
I perfectly well understand, I just disagree with you. You hold very antiquated, reactionary views
I think money, or more precisely, being poor, got far most to do with disabilities than the sex you were born with. Seriously.
I don't think most people mind helping out a handicap person. I do think some people would care if they have to change there life or help out trans people when their capable of helping themselves.

Judith Butler reminds me about all the thinks that now I hate...
Explain. State your opinion. What exactly, and why hate?
yeah, maybe as a male...
