Introduction to Women's Studies


Activism: This week, i wanted to go to the Equal at Naturas to help Jen with the film she will be making for this project, but unfortunately because of my work schedule i wasnt able to go. Though i have been getting signatures i feel like i should have been there to help her out. Hopefully next time.

Reflection: Since i wasnt able to do much this week because of my work schedule, in one of our class discussion we talked about Living in the globalizing world and something in that reading that caught my eye was the section on human trafficking. Since there is little being done to solve this problem as well as a lot of people are not well informed of what human trafficking is, and its not just for sexual slaves, or for organs,but there is also trafficking about sweatshops and other kind of work related trafficking (381). The same goes to those who don't understand the term gender identity its not just about transgender, its more to it than what people may think it is.

Reciprocity: During class i learned to have a better understanding about different causes going on and how a simple word can mean so many things, we just got to go out there and leaned more about something instead of being close minded about subject that may be uncomfortable to talk about.
