Drawing from Popular Culture I have been thinking more about the classroom as a social space, the talks day as an ‘event’. How can the day be framed? How this might affect student expectations? I want to throw up a few refs from youth tel

Hi Becky,

I enjoyed reading your sensitive account of intersectionality in relation to faith through the lens of your own lived experience as a white Jewish woman. It helped me better understand the how duality of identity can lead to an ‘invisibility of Jewish experiences in discussions about race, class, and gender’.
An underlying imp…Read more

Agree that there is much more need for dialogue within UAL and it needs to be prioritised as a given, and students also need to be engaging in the same conversations and training.

Hi Becki, I really enjoyed your use of the metaphor of a ‘navigating a tapestry’ to communicate your take on intersectionality, and it helped me visualise the concept ( just went off on a tapestry google search tangent!)
