Are you passionate about exploring literature through a feminist lens? Do you yearn to dive deep into powerful narratives that challenge societal norms and ignite discussions about gender equality? Welcome to our dynamic and thought-provoking Feminist Book Club for 14-18 year olds!

In this course, we will delve into an array of captivating feminist literature spanning fiction, nonfiction, theory, biographies, and more. Each month, we will embark on an exhilarating journey through a new book, unraveling its themes, dissecting its messages, and uncovering its significance in the realm of feminism and social justice.

Throughout the year, we will explore a diverse range of topics including existential feminism, misogyny, women's education advocacy, body politics, archetypal feminism, gender representation in literature, the intersection of race and gender, and much more. From ancient poetry to contemporary novels, our syllabus is designed to provoke critical thinking, ignite passion for gender equity, and inspire action.

Our class meets once a week, offering a nurturing and inclusive space for vibrant discussions, creative exploration, and collaborative learning. Each month, we will focus on a different book, with weekly lessons meticulously tailored to engage students with the themes and content of the assigned text. Through group discussions, and multimedia presentations, students will have the opportunity to deepen their understanding of feminist literature and its implications in our world.

As your instructor, I am committed to fostering a supportive and intellectually stimulating environment where every voice is valued and heard. I will guide you through the rich tapestry of feminist literature, providing context, encouraging critical analysis, and facilitating meaningful discussions.

Join us on this transformative journey as we explore the power of literature to challenge, inspire, and shape our understanding of feminism.

Orientación para padres
In our Feminist Book Club, we delve into literature that challenges conventional narratives, confronts uncomfortable truths, and inspires critical reflection. As we navigate the pages of various texts, we recognize that some topics may be difficult to confront, yet they are essential for fostering empathy, awareness, and advocacy. From Laura Bates' "Men Who Hate Women" to Stephanie Jones-Rogers' "They Were Her Property," our syllabus includes works that confront issues such as misogyny, gender-based violence, and the legacy of slavery. These topics are not easy to read about, but they are vital for understanding the complexities of gender inequality and systemic oppression. Throughout our discussions, we provide a supportive environment where participants can engage with these challenging themes while feeling respected and validated. Our goal is not to shy away from discomfort, but rather to confront it with courage and compassion, knowing that through understanding and dialogue, we can work towards meaningful change.
