Ok, so instead of posting a lengthy blog this week, i figured YouTube would be better. These are two songs that are popular right now by Britney Spears and Beyoncé... If you could watch the videos linked below and tell me your thoughts on how we might use these in a classroom to raise awareness of sexism in the US. We always seem to have these lengthy conversations about "guys" and hegemony, and have been talking about how multiculturalism means more than just race and ethnicity. maybe these videos could serve as a catalyst for a conversation with our students. Maybe they couldn't. I would LOVE to know your thoughts!
Happy Thanksgiving!
