  • Bad Girls: Agency, Revenge, and Redemption in Contemporary Drama
    e Interdisciplinary Journal of Popular Culture and Pedagogy Bad Girls: Agency, Revenge, and Redemption in Contemporary Drama Courtney Watson, Ph.D. Radford University Roanoke, Virginia, United States [email protected] ABSTRACT Cultural movements including #TimesUp and #MeToo have contributed momentum to the demand for and development of smart, justified female criminal characters in contemporary television drama. These women are representations of shifting power dynamics, and they possess agency as they channel their desires and fury into success, redemption, and revenge. Building on works including Gillian Flynn’s Gone Girl and Netflix’s Orange is the New Black, dramas produced since 2016—including The Handmaid’s Tale, Ozark, and Killing Eve—have featured the rise of women who use rule-breaking, rebellion, and crime to enact positive change. Keywords: #TimesUp, #MeToo, crime, television, drama, power, Margaret Atwood, revenge, Gone Girl, Orange is the New Black, The Handmaid’s Tale, Ozark, Killing Eve Dialogue: The Interdisciplinary Journal of Popular Culture and Pedagogy 37 Watson From the recent popularity of the anti-heroine in novels and films like Gone Girl to the treatment of complicit women and crime-as-rebellion in Hulu’s adaptation of The Handmaid’s Tale to the cultural watershed moments of the #TimesUp and #MeToo movements, there has been a groundswell of support for women seeking justice both within and outside the law. Behavior that once may have been dismissed as madness or instability—Beyoncé laughing wildly while swinging a baseball bat in her revenge-fantasy music video “Hold Up” in the wake of Jay-Z’s indiscretions comes to mind—can be examined with new understanding.

  • Convent Slave Laundries? Magdalen Asylums in Australia
    Convent slave laundries? Magdalen asylums in Australia James Franklin* A staple of extreme Protestant propaganda in the first half of the twentieth century was the accusation of ‘convent slave laundries’. Anti-Catholic organs like The Watchman and The Rock regularly alleged extremely harsh conditions in Roman Catholic convent laundries and reported stories of abductions into them and escapes from them.1 In Ireland, the scandal of Magdalen laundries has been the subject of extensive official inquiries.2 Allegations of widespread near-slave conditions and harsh punishments turned out to be substantially true.3 The Irish state has apologized,4 memoirs have been written, compensation paid, a movie made.5 Something similar occurred in England.6 1 ‘Attack on convents’, Argus 21/1/1907, http://trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/10610696; ‘Abbotsford convent again: another girl abducted’, The Watchman 22/7/1915, http:// trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/111806210; ‘Protestant Federation: Why it is needed: Charge of slavery in convents’, Maitland Daily Mercury 23/4/1921, http://trove.nla.gov. au/ndp/del/article/123726627; ‘Founder of “The Rock” at U.P.A. rally’, Northern Star 2/4/1947, http://trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/99154812. 2 Commission to Inquire into Child Abuse (Ireland, 2009), ch. 18, http://www. childabusecommission.ie/rpt/pdfs/CICA-VOL3-18.pdf; Report of the Inter-Departmental Committee to establish the facts of State involvement with the Magdalen Laundries (McAleese Report, 2013), http://www.justice.ie/en/ JELR/Pages/MagdalenRpt2013; summary at http://www.theguardian.com/world/2013/feb/05/magdalene-laundries-ireland-state- guilt 3 J.M.

  • Teachers' Responsibilities for Responding to Bullying
    Journal of Instruct ional Pedagogies Making a difference for the bullied: teachers’ responsibilities for responding to bullying Janet F. McCarra Mississippi State University —Meridian Campus Jeanne Forrester Albuquerque Public Schools, NM Abstract Bullying continues to be a challenging issue for classroom teachers. The authors provide seven recommendations to prevent bullying and for intervention if bullying occurs: (a) know the forms of bullying and recognize the effects, (b) promote a positive classroom environment, (c) teach a variety of conflict resolution strategies, (d) use bibliotherapy, (e) respond to incidents of bullying, (f) help student s develop new roles, and (g) provide positive role modeling. Keywords: bullying, cyberbullying, teachers’ roles, conflict resolution, bibliotherapy Making a difference, Page 1 Journal of Instruct ional Pedagogies Another child has died —not due to a deadly disease or a horrible car accident but by his own hand. He committed suicide because of bullying ( Tresniowski, A., Egan, N. W., Herbst, D., Triggs, C., Messer, L., Fowler, J., Levy, D. S., & Shabeeb, N., 2010). Bullying is certainly not a new issue (Graham, 20 10). Perhaps everyone can think of a time or man y times when he/she was bullied (or was the bully). Education Week (2010) reported these statistics released by the Josephson Institute of Ethics: (a) 435 of 43,000 high school students said they had been bu llied, and (b) 50% admitted to bullying. Bullying is “a chronic institutional problem leading to psychological impairment, depression and suicide” (Olson, 2008, p. 9). The United States Department of Education held a bullying summit in August 2010 an d encouraged school leaders to take action against bullying (Da vis, 2011).
