The project went through stagesof development. Discussions in which preceded the the group shared ideas,frustrations, and personal experiences organisation of the subject areas thatwould be included in the materials to be pUblished. Each person accepted responsibilityfor one or more of the subject areas and conducted research and wroteher findings. Barbara Schonborn edited some of the materials.

You are, of course, recommending changes in purchasing and curriculumplanning, but meanwhile what? Try some of the following suggestions: Supplement school-supplied teaching materials with as many non-sexist resources as you can. consult bibliogrAphies available from the education task forde of your local National Organization for Women and work with yourlibrarian (school and city) to get more of these books available to your students.. Save the "Stories for Free Children" section of Ms.Bring in newspaper and magazine clippings, guest speakers, works of art, andanything else to show your class that men and women can rise abovetraditional stereotypes. Have your students analyze their reading books, literatureanthologies, social studies texts, and science books as group projects. You can use an evaluation form similar to the one in the December, 1972 NEA JournalToday's Education section (p. 22). Or you can make up your own standards with yourclass. You and your students should look for such things as: numbers of boys, girls, men and women shown; what are theydoing? wearing? saying?; what occupations are represented? In short, your students can do exactly what you did when you perused your existing materials. Encourage your students to rewrite stories containingsexual stereotypes. Have them draw new illustrations and post them. Better yet, have your students begin compiling their ownanthologies of poems, stories, pictures, art reproductions, newspaper and magazinearticles, and anything else they think is appropriate. Who knows, youmight be able to get them published. 5. Show films twice. The second time through, you might turn off thesound so students can talk about how plople are portrayed. 6. If you use the discussion questions and assignmentstypically included in textbooks, supplement these with questione whichbalance any obvious sex- biases. : "or instance, you might askstudents to discuss how the story would have differed had the main characOr been a boy(or girl). Or what if the structure of the family had been different (no father or nomother) ? -.2- 7. Use story problems from math books to teach grammar. Have students rewrite them in non-sexist form while perserving basic sentence structure. Show the results to any unliberated math teachers. F,neourage yourjtOents to write letters to publishers of their books detailing theii4 objections to sexist materials and their suggestions for improvements.

    Australian Women’s History Network Conference 2016 ‘Intersection in History’ Welcome to country: Diane Kerr Diane Kerr is a Wurundjeri Elder who identifies with the Ganun Willam Balak clan. She is also a ​ member of the Yulendj Group ­ the Bunjilaka Community Reference Group for the First Peoples ​ exhibition at the Melbourne Museum. PLENARY PANELS Intersectionality and the Writing of Women’s History Thursday 31 March, 9.15am Speakers: Professor Ann Curthoys, Dr Crystal Feimster, Professor Lynette Russell, Dr Zora Simic Chair: Dr Jane Carey ‘Intersectionality’ has recently become a hot topic across sociology and allied areas, and has even crossed into popular forums. First proposed by Kimberle Crenshaw in 1989, this framework insists that multiple categories of analysis (gender, race, class, and sexuality among others) must be deployed together to understand social processes and experiences, and specific forms of oppression. It is thus a platform for critique of existing scholarship which fails to take account of the multiplicity of differences which shape both individuals and collectives. In many ways it has overlapped with, or is an expression of, critiques of white/western feminism. Our panel proceeds in part from the understanding that women’s history has actually paid attention to multiple categories of analysis for quite some time – although these contributions are not well recognised and they have not always used the term 'intersectionality'. What, then, are the specific implications of intersectionality for the writing of women’s

It contributes to current scholarly efforts to revisit the 1970s by reconsidering often- repeated narratives about the critical naivety of feminist literary criticism in its initial articulation. As the story now goes, many of the most prominent feminist thinkers of the period engaged in unsophisticated literary analysis by conflating lived social reality with textual representation when they read works of literature as documentary evidence of real life. As a result, the work of these “bad critics,” particularly Kate Millett and Andrea Dworkin, has not been fully accounted for in literary critical terms.

  • Their Angry Creed: the Shocking History of Feminism, and How It Is Destroying Our Way of Life
    Their Angry Creed: The Shocking History of Feminism, and How it is Destroying Our Way of Life. By Herbert Purdy. London: LPS Publishing, 2016. 507 pages. No price information on book; amazon gives price as $24.50. Review by J. Steven Svoboda. Retired businessman Herbert Purdy makes it two LPS Publishing books I have reviewed in two months, both outsized books, both written by retirees, and both utterly indispensable. I will repeat what I recently said in my review of William Collins’ The Empathy Gap because it’s just as true here: Let me say right off the bat, don’t even think about not buying this book. There is nothing like it. Purdy starts us off, more or less, recounting the famous (or notorious) 1971 confrontation at Town Hall in New York City between Norman Mailer (who sounded eminently reasonable, it must be said) and extreme feminists such as Jacqueline Ceballos. The author takes us back in time for an overview of the swinging sixties, then through a review of the “angry generation” including John Osborne that eventually birthed the beat movement, and next an overview of early feminists including Andrea Dworkin, Valerie Solanas of the Society for Cutting Up Men, Shulamith Firestone, Germaine Greer, and Betty Friedan. It is illuminating to read about the fascinating, brilliant, deeply troubled lives of the pederast partners Jean-Paul Sartre and his almost equally famous arch-feminist partner in crime (never a truer use of the word), Simone de Beauvoir, who endorsed barring women from choosing homemaker lives because if they were allowed to elect this route, too many would choose it! Purdy deftly sets out the unsurprising yet potentially critical fact that almost all leading feminists had tremendously troubled family relationships, often particularly with their fathers.

Walter Lippman definía xa en 1920, nunha das súas obras claves, Liberty and the News, ao xornal como "a biblia da democracia", o "libro a partir do cal o pobo establece a súa conduta" (2011, p. 38). Escocía nestas verbas de Lippmann a manipulación propagandística exercida polo goberno estadounidense para, coa aura dos veos patrióticos, convencer a cidadanía dos beneficios da entrada dos Estados Unidos na Primeira Guerra Mundial e do perigo, trala Revolución Rusa, da extensión da "ameaza roxa".
