Document Summary
Women st 1a03 - apr 6 - what we"ve covered. Identify and discuss ideas and concepts addressing the relationships between gender, sexuality, class, race, nationality and culture. These relationships are intersectional (hooks and pateman articles) We frequently talk about intersectionality in the abstract (i. e. theory) but experience it in the concrete (i. e. bodies, our lived experiences, our personal stories and histories) Apply the critical frameworks we have studied and skills we have developed to the analysis of pop culture, media texts and cultural practices. Readings included critical assessments of the art and music scenes, popular music magazines, zines, advertising, cosmetics and fashion. Critically compare and contrast representational practices and discourses in mainstream mass media and in feminist media sources. Feminist media prioritizes personal stories (the personal is the political) Feminist media supports viewpoint with evidence from women"s lives. Mainstream media prioritizes factual stories (the personal has no place in the world of fact)
