Tuesday 3 February – The material culture/s of gendered timelines
• READ: Paoletti, Pink & Blue: as much as you can but especially the Introduction (xiii-xix) and Ch4: A Boy is Not a Girl (60-84).
• If for any reason you have been unable to secure a copy of the book for today’s assignment, then make a point of using the time you would have spent reading the book to find out what you can about the author, Jo Paoletti, and reviews of the book, online. If necessary, bring that material into class instead.
• Bring questions for the author and interests to share! WRITE THEM DOWN AND BRING THAT!
Paoletti is faculty here at UMD, in the AMST program, and a long time pioneer in transdisciplinary study. She will visit our class today to talk about her book! So bring your interests and questions, bouncing off what you have read and what you have been able to find out about her and her book! She is the first of several authors who will either visit class or who will be on campus for exciting events!
