Surviving and Countering Patriarchal Whitelash: Public Education and Resistance Research by "Nasty Women"

Mon, April 16, 10:35am to 12:05pm, New York Hilton Midtown, Floor: Fourth Floor, Hudson Suite

Session Type: Symposium

Abstract

As female educators and researchers who have (through our politically activist sister) been referred to as “Nasty Women” in the US presidential debates, we believe that it is our responsibility to respond through our inquiry to the violent reinscription of intersecting forms of injustice and marginalization. The purposes of this symposium are therefore (1) to demonstrate personal actions taken by researchers to deal with thoughts/feelings of despair as well as how to move toward survival, and (2) to explore historical, new, and rethought research and activist methodologies (frameworks) as counter measures broadly and for public education specifically.
