Discarded Identities: An Autohistoria-teoria of Inspiring Gender Justice with Reuse Persona Dolls

Dr. Michelle Domingues & Lena Ko, MS.

This workshop integrates autohistoria-teoría /autobiographical theory, and documents the social construction of a gender fluid persona doll named “Logan” during a focus group with educators. Logan’s story is one of curricular innovation in the examination of topics and concepts of ecological sustainability, equity-based pedagogy, and creative reuse through the construction and use of persona dolls. The dolls themselves are created from reuse materials, and adopt personas and social backgrounds reflecting awareness of ecological and social injustice while co-developing ideas of actions for equity with children.
