Lesson on Gender Stereotypes
2nd Graders Put On Gender Bending Assembly (Rethinking Schools)
When those who have the power to name and to socially construct reality choose not to see you or hear you, whether you are dark-skinned, old, disabled, female, or speak with a different accent or dialect than theirs, when someone with the authority of a teacher, say, describes the world and you are not in it, there is a moment of psychic disequilibrium, as if you looked into a mirror and saw nothing. - Adrienne Rich (RSG&S, Chapter 3: Our Curriculum)
