Please watch the following short video clips, and then submit at least one question/comment, as well as at least one response to another student, and do so by Saturday 4/19. This will count as your participation and attendance for this past week.
The clips help illustrate, in particular, the key Queer theorist Judith Butler’s ideas. I have arranged them in order so that you get deeper and deeper into these ideas.
