Sigh. Wish I had been there :) (me too Deborah -- big fan of Baxter Sez! And big fan of Alison's too)

Thanks so much for posting this . . . Sounds like a very stimulating, and fun, way to spend a weekend. I'm especially intrigued by that relatively new (to me) discipline, intersectionality. While each of the five reasons to go would be a draw,…

Andrea Smith at the National Women's Studies Association Conference

Andrea Smith was one of the keynote speakers last night at the National Women's Studies Association Conference, and jeez, was she amazing. In a way, I'm glad she doesn't teach at the College of Charleston, because she's so dynamic, smart, compelling, and energetic--and seems so much like a person I'd love to hang out with--that I fear she'd throw off my whole vibe, my…See More

Fabulous! We may try to post these tomorrow as we ended up with this crazy fun Day of Action today (asking everyone to buy books published by women in 2009), so don't feel to pressured to "live blog" -- perfectly good to do a summary…

Katie, I'm sure this is a very tacky use of the comment wall, but we're interested in bringing you to the College of Charleston this school year to do an op ed workshop with our faculty. What's the best way to get in touch with you…

Alison Piepmeier replied to the discussion 'Framing your identity and marketing your work' in the group Writer, PhD*
My website is incredibly basic. It gives a quick snapshot of the different sorts of things I do--the idea was for it to be helpful if I pitch stories to mainstream publications, but so far I haven't done a lot of that, so I don't know if…

Quick take: Angela Davis and the National Women's Studies Association Conference

Posted on November 13, 2009 at 5:23am 1 Comment

The conference officially got started last night with a keynote address by Angela Davis, who is one of the most important feminist activists of the last forty years, and always an inspiring speaker. She discussed the changes that the NWSA has gone through in recent years, changes that are making it a more inclusive and rigorous academic organization, and she also discussed… Continue

Love

LOVE has been on my mind the past few days. Maybe because it's valentines day... maybe not. I just want you guys to know what love means. Real love, not the fake marketing kind. So, I've spent the last  few days trying to define love for you, not…See More

Cris, I started writing when I finally believed in myself enough and allowed my voice to emerge and trust the process. The piece I'm working on is a one-woman show about mental illness and it was bubbling under the surface for years. It was…
