Описание: What effect has feminism had on Canadian education since the 1970 Royal Commission on the Status of Women, and to what end? Transforming Conversations explores post-commission feminist thought and action in the contexts of primary, secondary, post-secondary, and adult education. In this volume, teachers, professors, and educational administrators – many trailblazers themselves – document the historical experiences and outcomes of feminist action in university faculties of education, departments of educational administration, academic and professional societies, teachers' unions, and community groups over the past five decades. They begin by exploring liberal feminism as an initial response to the historical context in which female educators spoke up for women's rights and reshaped formal education systems. The contributors further explore how feminist theory was reconceptualized as women moved into formal leadership roles across education sectors. Last, contributors consider female educators at the intersection of gender and other systems of exclusion, such as race and class, despite ostensibly inclusive feminist theory that continues to be bounded by Western, colonial, neoliberal ideologies. Transforming Conversations considers the complex effects feminism has had and continues to have on Canadian education, acknowledges voices that have been marginalized, and invites readers to continue a transformative feminist dialogue.

Описание: Due to the huge success of her graphic memoir Fun Home: A Family Tragicomic in 2006 and its subsequent Tony Award-winning musical adaptation in 2009, Alison Bechdel (b. 1960) has recently become a household name. However, Bechdel, who has won numerous awards including a MacArthur Fellowship, has been writing and drawing comics since the early 1980s. Her comic strip Dykes to Watch Out For (DTWOF) stood out as one of the first to depict lesbians in popular culture and is widely hailed as an essential LGBTQ resource. It is also from this comic strip that the wildly popular Bechdel Test-a test to gauge positive female representation in film-obtained its name. While DTWOF secured Bechdel's role in the comics world and queer community long before her mainstream success, Bechdel now experiences notoriety that few comics artists ever achieve and that women cartoonists have never attained.Spanning from 1990 to 2017, Alison Bechdel: Conversations collects ten interviews that illustrate how Bechdel uses her own life, relationships, and contemporary events to expose the world to what she has referred to as the ""fringes of acceptability""-the comics genre as well as queer culture and identity. These interviews reveal her intentionality in the use of characters, plots, structure, and cartooning to draw her readers toward disrupting the status quo.Starting with her earliest interviews on public access television and in little-known comics and queer presses, Rachel R. Martin traces Bechdel's career from her days with DTWOF to her popularity with Fun Home and Are You My Mother? This volume includes her ""one-off"" DTWOF strips from November 2016 and March 2017 (not anthologized anywhere else) and in-depth discussions of her laborious creative process as well as upcoming projects.

Pass the torch of empowerment and inspiration with a collection of stories from ten real-life women who made a place for themselves at the top.
Despite the changes and decades-long battles for women to have the power to define themselves and follow the paths of their choosing, there are still numerous challenges yet to be faced on the road to progress. From the gender divide to continuing social stigmas, and the lack of respect for the female body and contribution, it is no wonder that, across the globe, there are so few women in top-ranking positions in companies and businesses. However, that doesn't mean that they don't exist.
In Women Leaders with Inspiring Stories, author Naghilia Desravines explores the strength, courage, and inspiration of ten contemporary women who are executives, CEOs, mentors, and leaders in today's modern and competitive world. Each chapter looks into the personal stories, struggles, and successes of each woman, including how they got to where they are now; and what they are doing to inspire and empower other women to do the same. In this book you'll hear from the founder of the Just Do You Empowerment Movement; the CEO of A Life Ignited; the bestselling author of Up the Ladder in a Skirt; and other powerful speakers, authors, and mentors.
Women Leaders with Inspiring Stories shares, explores, and celebrates the strong women out there who are working to pave the way for women and will give you the confidence and encouragement for you to go out and do the same.
