BLOG REFLECTION INQUIRY STRAND

I selected the feminist strand for many reasons. One, subconsciously the events that I have chosen so far thus year have overwhelmingly fallen under that umbrella, so obviously I have an inclination toward this subject. Two, I am genuinely the most passionate and interested about this issue. Right now I am taking an elective called "Issues of race, class, gender, and sexual orientation" and we cover many of the details and questions that fall in the gender category and we focus on womens' roles (and lack thereof) in society. As a woman, I feel obliged but also excited to focus on this strand for the rest of the year. There are organizations that I have previously been involved in that I plan to continue with such as the Courage Campaign and/or Women's Health Center. I also look forward to finding new events to go to.
