Women and Gender Essay Paper
Description
Please read the requirements carefully and confirm with me if you have any questions, thanks.
Kimberle Crenshaw (1989) argues that feminism must include an analysis of sexism and patriarchy. She says, “feminism must include an analysis of race if it hopes to express the aspirations of non-white women. Neither Black liberationist politics nor feminist theory can ignore the intersectional experiences of those whom the movements claim as their respective constituents” (Crenshaw 1989, 166). In this essay you will focus particularly on third wave feminism, which engages intersectionality (Crenshaw 1989).
Drawing directly on Crenshaw (1989) or Vivian May (2015) – and citing them for evidence – respond to this prompt: What is intersectionality? How could it be applied to your area of study? Explain how understanding it as a product of (1) third wave feminism matters to what it is and what it means. (You may, of course, also draw on other sources).[Order Now]
Provide an example to center your response around. This example can be a recent experience, concept, article, video, or case study that you discussed in this course or another course attends to or does not attend to intersectionality.
A good essay will:
Provide a definition of feminism: it will describe it in such a way so as to get the reader to see the goal of feminism.
Describe third wave feminism and what it aims to accomplish.
Describe intersectionality as a way of thinking about identity and oppression– making sure to define intersectionality.
Provide a summary discussion that shows how the applications of intersectionality allow you to better understand feminism
Explains what is gained when you incorporate intersectionality in your declared or perspective area of study.
Original Work
The essay you turn in must be your own original work. It is perfectly okay to talk with classmates about ideas, themes, strategies, but the written paper must be entirely your own. Copied, duplicated, or identical papers will receive a zero and all parties involved will be reported to the Office of Academic Integrity for disciplinary action.
Format requirements:
The following 9 requirements are “submission requirements.” Failure to meet any one of them means that you will get a ZERO on your paper and there will be no chance to make it up.
The paper must be 500 words or more.
The paper must have a title.
The pages must be numbered.
The paper must include your name.
The paper must be double spaced.
The paper must use a standard font of no smaller than 11 pt and no larger than 12 pt.
The paper must be properly cited. All quotations, paraphrases, and references to others’ ideas must be cited using a citation format of your choosing. One system is the author-date system – e.g. (Crenshaw 1989) – and include a page number if they are of specific quotations, paraphrases of specific passages, or indications of specific information – e.g. (Crenshaw 1989, 166).
The paper must contain a bibliography of all works cited; all works in the bibliography must be cited in text. The bibliography must be alphabetized.
The paper must be turned in on April 29th.
Before you turn your essay in:
Assure you have met each of the nine submission requirements.
Read your essay out-loud to a friend: make sure they can “see” in their mind’s-eye what you describe. Make sure that what you say on the page makes clear sense to this friend of yours.
Double check for incomplete sentences, for run-ons, for verb-subject agreement, for spelling, and for proper citation.
