@DebesOlivia @anya_fredsell Yes, this relates to my collage on sex trafficking for our Activism/Research project. In a capitalist economy, sex trafficking utilizes women's bodies for economic gain transnationally. This therefore reinforces male privilege and the patriarchal control of women. #CCiFeminism
@nicolecatromeo Yes, what a great connection to the practice of cross-nursing. Especially noting on the difference in cultural acceptance between the two. #CCiFeminism
@talliecon@ElonIndia@Paloma_Elon Could not agree more. Sharing such a personal experience takes enormous courage. Thank you @Paloma_Elon for your presentation and insight, which I greatly benefitted from in broadening my own understanding! #CCiFeminism
Would love to open up a conversation about women's bodies specifically in regards to the topics of breastfeeding, sex trafficking, and fashion. What are your thoughts about how women's bodies are constantly utilized as a canvas for debate of American ideals? #CCiFeminism
@l_teske21 Very excited for you! Could you share any insights you’ve learned about gender discrimination in the workplace? Would love to hear especially how it relates to the control of women’s bodies, since that is the topic of my activism project. #CCiFeminism
Congratulations to @TaylynRSmith and @jcampbell281 on your miscast cabaret this past Sunday night! I attended and loved the intersecctionality about gender, race, and sexuality that was a key theme in our discussion. #CCiFeminism
This poster presentation reminded me of our module on Hip Hop Feminism, specifically how female artists must navigate a male dominated music industry that encourages the sexualization and objectification of women.
In "Who brands the World? Girls! How female artists must manage their brand to be successful," Mathilde Martin investigates the ways in which female artists suffer from gendered constraints and in response resist this male dominance in the music industry. #SURF2018#CCiFeminism
Both @Madonna and @Beyonce are female artists who have prioritized sending an empowering message to their audience, especially other girls and women, even if that is at the expense of their own success.
With our Activism/Research Projects on the brain, I found this powerful photo campaign that connects to some of our conversations in class about gendered power differentials, importance of inclusive language, and the sexualization of women's bodies. #CCiFeminism
@DebesOlivia @anya_fredsell I completely agree with you as a huge fan of @shondarhimes and her show “Grey’s Anatomy.” In all of her T.V. shows, I personally appreciate her efforts of portraying diverse characters and bringing attention to real world issues that are often neglected. #CCiFeminism
I want to thank @lannadelgrey for coming to speak on campus today. Its always inspiring to hear from a female activist that is creating change and lifting the voices of other women!
@lannadelgrey's advice to feminists: choose something to focus on and go after it. Invest your time, it starts out small and builds from there. Have discussions with your friends and read up on issues that you want to know more about!
