  • The Fantastic Queer: Reading Gay Representations in Torchwood and True Blood As Articulations of Queer Resistance Frederik Dhaenens1
    Critical Studies in Media Communication Vol. 30, No. 2, June 2013, pp. 102Á116 The Fantastic Queer: Reading Gay Representations in Torchwood and True Blood as Articulations of Queer Resistance Frederik Dhaenens1 Fantasy films and television series have generally taken an ambivalent position toward homosexuality. On the one hand, the genre has omitted representations of gay characters or displaced homosexuality onto the victims, villains, or nonhuman others. Hence, from a queer theoretical perspective, homosexuality has been represented as a threat to the hegemonic discourse of heteronormativity. On the other hand, deconstructionist practices have revealed how the other may be read as a form of cultural resistance and a powerful metaphor for gay men and women. However, a few 21st-century fantasy series are breaking the tradition by representing characters and themes explicitly marked as gay. Using a textual analysis of two contemporary fantasy series (Torchwood and True Blood), this study illustrates how the inclusion of gay characters rearticulates this ambivalent position of the fantasy genre toward homosexuality. The ambivalence no longer serves to read the others as metaphors for homosexuality and/or queerness, but allows us to imagine queer subject positions and transgressive norms and values in close relation to actual gay characters. Keywords: Torchwood; True Blood; Gay Representation; Queer Theory; The Fantastic Introduction Nan Flanagan: We’re citizens. We pay taxes. We deserve basic civil rights ...just like everyone else. Bill Maher: Yeah, but ...I mean, come on. Doesn’t your race have a rather sordid history ...of exploiting and feeding off innocent people for centuries? Nan Flanagan: Three points.

  • Weekly Bulletin for Parents & Students Aug 27-Sep
    The President’s Hebdomadal Blue Ribbon Newsletter Celebrating 100 Years of Christian Brothers at SPS Aug 27 – Sep 3, 2018 This week we observe the 13th anniversary of Hurricane Katrina. While some would prefer to erase any mention or memory of this dark time in our history, I think it important that we remember how far we have come in the past 13 years – and celebrate the tenacity and drive of those who helped make recovery possible. I’ve used the following before, but it’s worth another read. Following the storm, our Computer Applications II Class, under the direction of long time SPS computer whiz Weese Petersen, published a book about what the boys learned from the storm – some funny, some insightful, some poignant: I learned that my brother gets aggravated after 10 hours of riding in a car. I learned that relatives can get annoying and they bring friends when they stay with you. I learned that relatives eat a lot when depressed. I learned that family is more important than you. I learned an obnoxious uncle is not a big help. I learned that having my family and friends is the only real thing that matters in my life. I learned what I should be thankful for. I learned that I take many thinks for granite [sic] like yesterday I was mad because I didn’t get my way then I thought that many lost everything. I learned everything can be survived. I learned that if you think you have it bad, someone somewhere has it worse.

  • 2018 Activity Packet
    WASHINGTON CHILDREN’S CHOICE PICTURE BOOK AWARD 2018 ACTIVITY PACKET A Bike Like Sergio’s By: Maribeth Boelts Illustrated: Noah Z. Jones Synopsis: Ruben, hopeful for a new bike, finds a one-hundred dollar bill, but is upset when he can’t find the bill in his backpack, thus prompting him to eventually do the right thing. Suggested Reading Date: 2nd week in December. Lost and Found Day is celebrated the second Friday in December. Activity Descriptions: Writing activity – have students write a paragraph. “What I Would Do if I Found $100” Debate the pros/cons of the saying “Finders keepers, losers weepers”. Survey the students whether they would or would not return a lost item. Create a graph of the results. Maribeth Boelts says, “Doing what’s right often involves some wrestling, and Ruben wrestles!” Have students come up with a list of other circumstances where they have to wrestle with their conscience in order to make a good decision. Ruben’s mom had to budget their household money. Using newspaper advertisements and store flyers, have students come up with items they would purchase with a limited amount of money. Encourage students to share personal experiences of when they lost something and how they felt. If the item was later found, how did their feelings change?
