Abstract

Abstract This article conceptualises feminist conversations with Buberian dialogic philosophy while theorising intersubjectively intersectional dialogues with Carole Bell Ford's book, The Girls, drawing on stories of Jewish women in Brownsville, Brooklyn. The narrative extracts analysed grapple with some of the women's challenges of coming of age within migrant enclaves in the post-war period and these are deconstructed through a feminist and intersectional dialogic lens. In gendering Buber, the article also embraces the temporal and spatial configurations of dialogic migrancy in how it offers transversal, diachronic and synchronic contributions through the women's experiences of everyday life. The article also reflects on methodological innovations in how the combined approaches can offer deeper, more reflexive and nuanced understandings of intersubjective experiences concerning complex emotions, sensitive themes and challenging topics.
