Dustin Kidd<\/b>, Temple University
\nThis session allows participants to reflect critically on a current syllabus regarding its inclusion of women authors, women characters, and women’s perspectives. We will approach this intersectionally, with a focus on all types of women including women of color, women with disabilities, working class women, women of diverse faiths, trans women, and women from around the world. We will reflect on the concept of canon and its relationship to systems of inequality and examine the ways that transformations of core curricula can destabilize these systems of inequality. Participants should bring two hard copies of one syllabus to the workshop. Participants will leave with 2-3 concrete steps they can take to introduce their students to a wider array of women authors, women characters, and women’s perspectives. Please bring a syllabus you would like workshop.<\/p>\n
