Description
Class Experience
This course is designed to introduce learners to feminism and feminist theory by looking at cartoon princesses, from the 1930s to today! This conversational class explores several basic feminist theories in easy to understand ways, providing students with the information they need to apply those theories to princess texts. Week 1: What is feminism? In this course, feminism will be defined along these lines: "Feminism is the belief that all people of all gender have equal value and should be...
Students will learn several key concepts of feminism and how to apply a feminist lens to watching movies. This is all done through age-appropriate instruction, defining complex terms in a way that kids can understand and learn from. A student who successfully completes this course will understand several important feminist ideas and be able to discuss them thoughtfully.
I have been an English professor for ten years, and one of my personal areas of interest is feminist theory, especially when it comes to analyzing texts. I have published numerous essays about feminist issues and enjoy teaching young kids to understand the basics of feminism in hopes of creating a more equitable world!
No homework assigned.
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.

I teach from an intersectional feminist perspective, which means that I view gender as just ONE aspect of the world where equality has not yet been attained. We may address additional areas of social injustice, including racism, classism, ableism, and more. I also teach from a non-binary perspective. Although I use gendered language including "boys" and "girls," I also use language like "all genders" and avoid binary language. Transgender and non-binary children should feel welcome in this course, and we will do our best to use gender-inclusive language.
