Description
Class Experience
Let's talk about feminism and the world of the Hawkins, Indiana! In this 1-time class, we'll do a deep dive into the characters, themes, and creators of the TV series Stranger Things. (There WILL be spoilers!) We'll briefly define feminism and then jump right into a conversation about the influence of feminism on the show.

Students will learn to apply feminist theories and ideas to a significant popular culture text.
I have been an English professor for 10+ years, which involves teaching through a feminist lens. My terminal degree, an MFA in Creative Nonfiction, focused on feminist narratives. In addition, my undergraduate degree in English with a minor in History prepared me for a career as a feminist educator. At the collegiate level, I teach education majors how to address diversity issues in their classroom in a class called Teaching Diversity Through Young Adult Literature. My essays on feminism and pop culture have been published by Jezebel, Everyday Feminism, Role Reboot, and Salon. I have also been teaching feminism courses on Outschool since early 2020.
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
50 minutes per week in class, and no time outside of class.
