“If I didn't define myself for myself, I would be crunched into other people's fantasies for me and eaten alive.” --Audre Lorde
I had a moment at the both the beginning and the end of the Feminist Pedagogy Conference yesterday; I relished in the fact that I have the ability spend a day listening to feminist scholars talk about the intricacies of their "intellectual signature"* (and I get paid to do so to boot). I felt really lucky to be at the conference, and savored the feeling of being able to sit and absorb the work of these speakers.
The 3rd Annual Feminist Pedagogy Conference is free and open to the public (with registration), and happening on Friday November 6 at the Grad Center. After kicking this cold, I hope to see you there!
I just took a peek at the program and I think this might be one of those times when you have to make tough decisions about which panel to attend (which is a good conference problem to have). Thanks to E. for the link!
