Natasha M. Nurse will be giving a presentation to the June book club on a book they have read. The presentation agenda includes an introduction, book summary, discussion of Juneteenth and lessons learned, and next steps. The book explores contrasts between white and black modernity and examines racial identity and black-Jewish relations. It demonstrates how exploring the color line in philosophy can open new areas of discussion. The presentation encourages attendees to think about how to become better allies in addressing racism and defining what allyship means to them through actions and initiatives. Next steps include joining the book club's online community.

The scarlet letter -conflict of individual and society
This document provides information about an assignment to analyze the conflict between individual and society in Nathaniel Hawthorne's novel "The Scarlet Letter". It includes the student's name, course details, topic, and date. It then summarizes the plot of the novel and defines adultery. Finally, it discusses some of the main characters in the novel, including Hester Prynne, Dimmesdale, Pearl, and Chillingworth, and how they are impacted by and struggle against the rigid Puritan society.
Political philosophy
The document discusses the development of Critical Race Theory as an area of scholarship within political philosophy. It argues that just as Feminist scholarship has grown into its own category, Critical Race Theory should do the same by analyzing the views of philosophers through the lens of race and constructing genealogies of racism. It provides examples of how philosophers' theories were influenced by and justified racial domination and the creation of a racial polity that subordinates non-whites.

"I Am Just So Glad You Are Alive": New Perspectives

Layli Phillips • Maria R. Stewart

Abstract In this paper, we argue that both traditional psychology-based group
identity theories related to race and sexuality and perspectives on the politics of
difference obtained from poststructuralist queer theory underdetermine identity as it
is experienced by a distinct subset of individuals, emblematized by non-traditional,
non-conforming, and transgressive Black queers. We offer a new explanatory model
for these emerging identities that is rooted in metaphysical explanations of human
experience. To support our model, we draw historical and contemporary illustrations
from African American popular culture.

Week 5 book group Race Matters by Dr. Cornel West
This summary provides the key details about Cornel West's book "Race Matters" in 3 sentences:
Cornel West examines the systemic racism and white supremacy ingrained in American society that inflicts "ontological wounds and emotional scars" on Black Americans. He argues that the loss of effective Black cultural, religious, and civic institutions combined with the influence of the media and consumerism have led to a decline in values and meaning for Black communities. West calls for a new ethical framework centered around acknowledging the humanity in all people in order to address the racial inequalities and moral failings of American society.
Elit 48 c class 6 2016 special
1. African American criticism examines works through the lens of the black experience with oppression and marginalization. It notes how black writing emerges from a sociocultural context marked by these factors.
2. It also draws from postcolonial theory regarding the representation of the "other" and identity reclamation. African American criticism is aware of how black experience relates to African influences and the legacy of slavery and racism in shaping black artistic production in white cultures.
3. A key concern is who can speak for or understand black literature and whether black works demand a specific ideological lens or can be analyzed using traditional theories. It questions the essence of race and how racial identity has been constructed and understood over time.
FINAL EXAM INSTRUCTIONS 1.Berger and Luckmann state that we ar.docx
FINAL EXAM INSTRUCTIONS
1.
Berger and Luckmann state that we are born into an 'objective social structure' and that we have only a limited ability to subjectively appropriate and interpret it for ourselves. Discuss how the categories of race, gender, and class predate any one individual, and how we are bound to identify ourselves in relation to them. To what extent can an individual redefine themselves in relation to these categories, and what are the possible social sanctions they may face for doing so?
Try to make your answer around 500 words, and cite any pertinent sources from the course.
2.
Though Sociologists have long studied race, class, gender, and other categories of identity, those who argue for the merits of Intersectional Theory claim that it offers a distinct advantage in understanding the power of such categories. What do you believe is that advantage? Put in terms of this course, how would studying diversity through the lens of Intersectional Theory give you a better understanding than studying diversity without it?
Try to make your answer around 500 words, and cite any pertinent sources from the course.
3.
Matters of race, ethnicity, class, gender, and sexuality are often in the public eye, and tend to be at the center of many passionate (and unfortunately even violent) conflicts. While discussing diversity in the context of institutions and organizations remains important, it is as important to ask to what extent we accept diversity and difference as a society. One such case occurred August 11th, 2017 when a white nationalist group marched in protest of the potential removal of a statue of Robert E. Lee from the campus of the University of Virginia. Local organizations such as the NAACP and citizens of the town had argued that the statue (erected in 1924) needed to be removed as it was a symbol of the enslavement and oppression faced by blacks in the South. You may read more details of the case at the following link:
https://www.nytimes.com/2017/08/13/us/charlottesville-rally-protest-statue.html
Using the knowledge you've accumulated in this course, write a short letter to the editor of your local newspaper arguing why or why not you believe the removal of the statue from public view is in the interest of cultivating a more diverse society. Make sure to use the concept of microaggression and standpoint theory, including definitions. Do not use quotes to explain; use your own words. Try to make your response between 750-1000 words, and cite at least two scholarly sources from course readings or your own research to support your argument.

Jotería Studies, or the Political Is
Personal
Michael Hames-García
When I first compiled this dossier and submitted it to the Aztlán editorial
board, they observed something that I had more or less taken for granted: a
pattern across the essays of opening with meaningful personal experiences
and using these as sources for social and political theorization. I appreci-
ate this observation because it helps to make clear something that I have
practiced for years but had not thought to explain. Without exception, the
contributors to this dossier are indebted to the legacies of feminist activism
and theory of the 1960s and 1970s. The feminist slogan “the personal is
political,” which originated during this period, seems almost to be a cliché
these days, but within most traditional academic fields it is still a profound
challenge to business as usual. Throughout the 1980s and 1990s, it became
common for scholars to include cursory personal anecdotes to demystify
the status of the anonymous author or to briefly reflect on one’s position
of privilege in relation to one’s subject matter. What was rarely done thor-
oughly in academic publications, however, was the work performed by the
original feminist theorists who gave substance to the slogan: women like
Audre Lorde (1984), Cherríe Moraga (1983), Adrienne Rich (1980), and
Gloria Anzaldúa (1987). These women didn’t merely “situate themselves”
in relation to their subject. They dared to claim that their personal experi-
ences—of serving their brothers at home, of experiencing violence at the
hands of men, of desiring other women, of being cast out by their own
people—were political subjects worthy of theorization. These experiences
could be the starting point for theory, and their own personal responses to
them were, in fact, theory.

the glances exchanged between two cholos at a bar in Boyle Heights. As
jotería, our bodies and our selves are lived legacies of colonialism, racism,
xenophobia, homophobia, sexism, and heterosexism. By bringing jotería
studies into existence, we make the claim that these social and political
processes cannot be adequately theorized without attending to our personal
experiences. That is to say, the political is personal. With this in mind,
permit me to begin with a personal narrative to explain how I found
jotería studies.
My first sexual encounter with another man, at age fourteen, was in

Feminist Criticism Mother Tongue
This document provides a summary and analysis of the anthology The (M)other Tongue: Essays in Feminist Psychoanalytic Interpretation. It discusses how psychoanalytic feminist criticism has grown in prominence and brought together unlikely pairs such as feminism and psychoanalysis as well as post-structuralism and American feminist social science. It analyzes how the anthology focuses on the figure of the mother and progresses from discussing father-based Oedipal structures to mother-based pre-Oedipal models. However, it also notes how the conclusion of the anthology's introduction glosses over differences between feminist critical approaches in favor of an inclusive joining, reflecting a tendency for the mother figure to discourage differentiation.

This document provides an agenda and discussion topics for an English class on September 28th and 30th. On the 28th, the class will discuss assigned readings, blog posts, and literature review samples. They will also work individually on literature reviews. On the 30th, the class will go over blog entries and a reading on the American Dream, discuss how literature reviews can help social action projects, and review more literature review samples. The document outlines various discussion topics around defining and dismantling racism, white supremacy, racial disparities, and moving beyond white guilt. It also provides tips and examples for writing a literature review.

This document provides context and information about the author Susan Glaspell and her short story Trifles. It begins with biographical details about Glaspell's life, education, and career as a journalist and writer. It notes that much of her work featured strong female protagonists and stories focused on women's experiences. The document then introduces Trifles and provides reading and discussion questions for students. It asks them to choose from analyzing a symbol in the story, applying a critical theory to it, connecting it to a modernist manifesto, or posting a QHQ about Trifles. In summary, the document gives background on Glaspell and assigns a reading of her short story Trifles along with associated discussion
Elit 48 c class 6 post qhq with feminist and lgbt qhq
This document provides information about complement versus compliment, discusses topics related to feminist criticism and LGBT criticism, introduces concepts of African American criticism, and presents discussion questions.
The document begins by defining complement as a noun or verb meaning something that completes or makes up a whole, while compliment is a noun or verb meaning an expression of praise or admiration.
It then discusses wrapping up a discussion on feminist and LGBT criticism, introduces concepts in African American criticism including how it examines how race is portrayed in literature and how the black experience is shaped by history. Key terms from W.E.B. DuBois like "the veil" and "double consciousness" are also defined.
The document ends by presenting discussion questions related
Gay,lesbian criticism and queer theory by Ab Ghafffar
This document discusses queer theory and its key concepts. It defines queer theory as attempting to redefine sexual identity and preference in order to find a space where homosexuality is seen as normal. It notes that queer theory interrogates how sexuality and identity are constructed. Some basic tenets discussed are that gender and sexuality are socially constructed rather than biological. The document also provides brief overviews of lesbian and gay criticism as well as gay and lesbian literature and history.
Gay,lesbian criticism and queer theory by ghaffar
Queer theory is a field of critical theory that emerged in the early 1990s out of the fields of queer studies and women's studies. Queer theory includes both queer readings of texts and the theorization of 'queerness' itself.[clarify] Heavily influenced by the work of Lauren Berlant, Leo Bersani, Judith Butler, Lee Edelman, Jack Halberstam,[1] and Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick, queer theory builds both upon feminist challenges to the idea that gender is part of the essential self and upon gay/lesbian studies' close examination of the socially constructed nature of sexual acts and identities.

This document discusses the challenges of writing an essay on the topic of "Black Like Me." It notes that exploring issues of race relations, identity, and societal perceptions requires a nuanced understanding drawn from personal experiences and history. Capturing the essence of racial discrimination and the book "Black Like Me" involves complex narratives that demand empathy. Addressing systemic racism necessitates in-depth research into historical events and cultural shifts. Balancing subjectivity and objectivity while maintaining a coherent narrative can also be difficult.

Chapter 3
The Central Frames
of Color-Blind Racism
The master defense against accurate social perception and change is al-
ways and in every society the tremendous conviction of Tightness about
any behavior form which exists.
— John Dollard, Class and Caste in a Southern Town
If Jim Crow's racial structure has been replaced by a "new racism,"
what happened to Jim Crow racism? What happened to beliefs about
blacks' mental, moral, and intellectual inferiority, to the idea that "it is
the [black man's] own fault that he is a lower-caste ... a lower-class man"
or the assertion that blacks "lack initiative, are shiftless, have no sense of
time, or do not wish to better themselves" 1 ; in short, what happened to
the basic claim that blacks are subhuman? 2 Social analysts of all stripes
agree that most whites no longer subscribe to these tenets. However, this
does not mean the "end of racism," 3 as a few conservative commentators
have suggested. Instead, a new powerful ideology has emerged to defend
the contemporary racial order: the ideology of color-blind racism. Yet,
color-blind racism is a curious racial ideology. Although it engages, as all
ideologies do, in "blaming the victim," it does so in a very indirect, "now
you see it, now you don't" style that matches the character of the new
racism. Because of the slipperiness of color-blind racism, in this chapter, I
examine its central frames and explain how whites use them in ways that
justify racial inequality.

Chapter 3
THE FRAMES OF COLOR-BLIND RACISM
Ideologies are about "meaning in the service of power." 4 They are expres-
sions at the symbolic level of the fact of dominance. As such, the ideolo-
gies of the powerful are central in the production and reinforcement of
the status quo. They comfort rulers and charm the ruled much like an
Indian snake handler. Whereas rulers receive solace by believing they are
not involved in the terrible ordeal of creating and maintaining inequal-
ity, the ruled are charmed by the almost magic qualities of a hegemonic
ideology. 5
The central component of any dominant racial ideology is its frames or
set paths for interpreting information. These set paths operate as cul-de-sacs
because after people filter issues through them, they explain racial phe-
nomena following a predictable route. Although by definition dominant
frames must misrepresent the world (hide the fact of dominance), this
does not mean that they are totally without foundation. (For instance, it
is true that people of color in the United States are much better off today
than at any other time in history. However, it is also true — facts hidden
by color-blind racism — that because people of color still experience sys-
tematic discrimination and remain appreciably behind whites in many
important areas of life, their chances of catching up with whites are very
slim.) Dominant racial frames, therefore, provide the intellectual road

occupythislecture
This document discusses the importance of including political elements in fiction writing by examining the works of several authors. It analyzes how Ayelet Tsabari, Joan Silber, and Carol Anshaw develop their characters' political identities by confronting them with political issues and systems of oppression. Tsabari creates Israeli characters who grapple with the occupation of Palestine, racism, and compulsory military service. Silber uses "aha moments" that trigger political realizations for her characters. The document argues fiction can transform reality by allowing readers to see different political perspectives, but writers must also pursue social justice in their work and lives. Overall it promotes including meaningful political content and examining one's own contradictions to create fully developed characters.
Why do we study literature
Literature provides insights into human nature, cultures, history, and enduring questions about life. It allows one to experience different perspectives and appreciate complexity. Studying literature cultivates language skills, offers new ideas, and reminds us that others have grappled with the same challenges we face. Literature entertains, teaches skills, and helps us feel less alone by showing that others have shared similar experiences. Overall, literature enhances our understanding of ourselves and connects us to the human experience across time and cultures.
Black feminist thought in the matrix of domination
Black feminist thought conceptualizes oppression as operating through interlocking systems of race, class and gender. It emphasizes placing Black women's experiences at the center of analysis to gain insights about prevailing concepts and offer new ways of knowing that can empower subordinate groups. Black feminist thought also recognizes multiple, partial perspectives and subjugated knowledges, and advocates for dialogue and empathy across groups to work towards social transformation.

Feminist Criticism Mother Tongue
This document provides a summary and analysis of the anthology The (M)other Tongue: Essays in Feminist Psychoanalytic Interpretation. It discusses how psychoanalytic feminist criticism has grown in prominence and brought together unlikely pairs such as feminism and psychoanalysis as well as post-structuralism and American feminist social science. It analyzes how the anthology focuses on the figure of the mother and progresses from discussing father-based Oedipal structures to mother-based pre-Oedipal models. However, it also notes how the conclusion of the anthology's introduction glosses over differences between feminist critical approaches in favor of an inclusive joining, reflecting a tendency for the mother figure to discourage differentiation.

June Book Club 2022.pptx
- 1. June Book Club Presentation by Natasha M. Nurse
- 2. Agenda 01 02 03 04 Introduction Book Summary Juneteenth & Lessons Learned Next Steps
- 4. The author’s “ essays explore the contrasting sums of a white and black modernity, examine standpoint epistemology and the metaphysics of racial identity, look at black-Jewish relations and racial conspiracy theories, map the workings of a white-supremacist polity and the contours of a racist moral consciousness, and analyze the presuppositions of Frederick Douglass's famous July 4 prognosis for black political inclusion. Collectively they demonstrate what exciting new philosophical terrain can be opened up once the color line in western philosophy is made visible and addressed.” Book Summary Source: Amazon
- 7. “We must become bigger than we have been: more courageous, greater in spirit, larger in outlook. We must become members of a new race, overcoming petty prejudice, owing our ultimate allegiance not to nations but to our fellow men within the human community.” - Haile Selassie
- 8. Food for Thought ❖ Talking about race isn’t optional - the world we live in is changing ❖ Black history is complex - it's important for us to understand what it would mean for our country if those who are most affected by racism were able to be heard—and listened to—as equals ❖ Define what allyship means to you - what action and initiatives can you lead or participate in personally and professionally
