Gender studies is an interdisciplinary academic field devoted to analysing gender identity and gendered representation. It includes women's studies (concerning women, feminism, gender, and politics), men's studies and queer studies.
Its rise to prominence, especially in Western universities after 1990, has been noted as a success of deconstructionism. Sometimes, gender studies is offered together with study of sexuality.

This presentation investigates how notion of “race” is socially constructed. It arose concurrently with the advent of European exploration as a justification and rationale for conquest and domination of the globe beginning in the 15th century of the Common Era. Therefore, “race” is an historical, “scientific,” and biological myth. It is an idea. Geneticists tell us that there is often more variability within a given so-called “race” than between “races,” and that there are no essential genetic markers linked specifically to “race.”
Color Blindness: Part of the Problem or Part the Solution?Terry Anderson
A review of controversy over the idea that race itself causes racism and that we would be better off returning to the ideal of a color blind approach to each other.

There has been much academic debate over the relationship between race and gender as factors in social, political and economic inequality and oppression and whether a race or feminist gender-based framework is most effective for the study and analysis of inequality and oppression. Taking up feminist critiques of patriarchy, liberal feminism for failing to address the experiences and issues confronted by women of colour, anti-racist activism for failing to address the issue of gender, as well as the question of how racism and homophobia intersect we will examine the relationship between race and gender on several levels: Firstly, we will examine the role and significance of gender and sexuality within racist discourses. Secondly, we will examine how race and gender compare, complement one another, differ or conflict as sites of social-political identification, classification, division and struggle, as factors in inequality, as well as frameworks for analysis. Thirdly, we shall look at the ways in which sexualized stereotyping works in the ‘double discrimination’ of racialized women and/or LGBT people. We will engage with several academic debates on the issue and discuss whether gendered race issues could or should be subsumed under an anti-racist or feminist analysis or agenda or remain distinct in a third category, or alternately how the three frameworks and agendas could co-exist and compliment one another for the most effective analysis and fight against different forms of social-political inequality.
Because there was a lot of dense material in this mini-lecture, I presented it as a SlideShare to make it visually more appealing and to break up the information a little.

He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

part-time or temporary work offered by employers
• Tertiary: when one a member seeks acceptance by the dominant group
by abandoning his/her own
• Mixed: involves a combination of the above
• (Hanna et al., 2000)
6. FIVE FACES OF OPPRESSION
Exploitation - is the act of using people’s labors to produce profit while
not compensating them fairly
Marginalization - the act of relegating or confining a group of people to a
lower social standing or outer limit or edge of society. Overall, it is a
process of exclusion
Powerlessness - the powerless are dominated by the ruling class and
are situated to take orders and rarely have the right to give them
• (Iris Marion Young)
7. FIVE FACES OF OPPRESSION
Cultural imperialism - The groups that have power in society control how
the people in that society interpret and communicate
Violence - Members of some groups live with the knowledge that they
must fear random, unprovoked attacks on their persons or property.
These attacks do not necessarily need a motive but are intended to
damage, humiliate, or destroy the person
• (Iris Marion Young)

8. COMBINATIONS OF OPPRESSION
Non-prejudiced, non-discriminator
“I don’t think there’s anything wrong with being gay; and I would hire
someone who is gay”
Non-prejudiced, discriminator
“I don’t think there’s anything wrong with being gay; but I wouldn’t hire
someone who is gay because it could cause problems at work”
9. COMBINATIONS OF OPPRESSION
Prejudiced, non-discriminator
“I think being gay is wrong; but I would still hire someone who is gay if they
are the best person for the job”
Prejudiced, discriminator
“I think being gay is wrong and I would refuse to hire anyone who is gay”
10. SOCIAL CONSTRUCTIONISM
Is a theory of knowledge that holds that characteristics typically
thought to be immutable and solely biological—such as gender, race,
class, ability, and sexuality—are products of human definition and
interpretation shaped by cultural and historical contexts
(Subramaniam 2010)
11. SOCIAL CONSTRUCTIONISM
Categorization is made based on body features, they are given
meaning and then used to divide people into these groups
Categories are not “natural” or fixed and the boundaries around them
are always shifting—they are contested and redefined in different
historical periods and across different societies
12. SOCIAL CONSTRUCTIONISM
Examples
One-drop Rule: regardless of their appearance, individuals with
any African ancestor are considered black
Gender: what may be believed as masculine features or feminine
behavior in one society may be the exact opposite of what is
considered natural for men and women in another
Social status. College professor versus plumber.
13. SOCIAL CONSTRUCT & OPPRESSION
• Social construction of differences between people are created
(constructed) for political, social, or economic gain, such as:
• "women are too emotionally unstable to vote" (because men want to stay
in power)
• "blacks are inferior; therefore slavery is acceptable" (because whites felt
they were superior and wanted to stay in power)
• "poor people are poor due to their own laziness and inferiority" (instead of
due to market influences, economic exploitation, or unlivable wages)
14. RACIAL FORMATION
• The Myth of Race
• Social construct of race since the birth of the U.S.
• White European descendants viewed themselves as an
innately superior in intelligence and ability (5)
• Dred Scott case – imported slaves and their descendants
were members of a lesser race

• Latino: person of Latin American origin, including
Caribbean (anything south of border)
• Does include Brazil, but not Spain
• Spanish: the language Hispanics speak
• Spaniard: a person born in Spain
20. RACIAL FORMATION
• Ethnicity refers to shared cultural practices,
perspectives, and distinctions that set apart one group
of people from another = ethnicity is a shared cultural
heritage
• The most common characteristics: ancestry, a sense of
history, language, religion, and forms of dress
21. RACIAL FORMATION
• Racial Identity: a sense of group or collective identity based on
the person’s perception that he or she shares a common heritage
with a particular racial group
• What are some reasons why a person would identify with a
race versus another?
• Rachel Dolezal
22. RACIAL FORMATION
• Racism. An ideology or belief system that hierarchically
organizes groups into different “races,” such that some groups
are believed to be superior or inferior to others; and a system of
inequality made up of policies and practices in which opportunity
is enabled or limited based on racial identity.
23. CREATING WHITE PRIVILEGE
• White Privilege. The benefits, advantages, and opportunities
available to people who are identified as white; these privileges
can be economic, cultural, social, psychological, etc.
• How White Privilege works
24. CREATING WHITE PRIVILEGE
• In what ways does White Privilege manifests itself today?
• The Privilege Test
25. CREATING WHITE PRIVILEGE
• Redlining. Real estate related practice that puts services, financial and
otherwise, out of reach for residents of certain areas based on race or
ethnicity.
• It normally includes the systematic denial of mortgages, insurance, loans and
other financial services based on location (and that geography area’s history)
rather than an individual's qualifications and creditworthiness. Redlining is
most palpable in minority neighborhoods.
