20th Annual Black Women’s Conference: April 18-19, 2014

This year is the 20^th convening of the Annual Black Women’s Conference.  In its history, there are few subjects of interest and important to the lives of Black women the conference has not explored.  As we celebrate this important year of the conference, we turn our attention to the work of a native daughter of Kentucky and preeminent feminist and intellectual, bell hooks.  Over the course of her career, hooks has been a leading thinker on the complexity of the positions of black women in American society and politics.  hooks continues to challenge  us with her current work to be both creative and thoughtful about understanding and making our place. Join us in celebrating the work of this important scholar and two decades of gathering black women in community. - more info: https://aaas.as.uky.edu/black-womens-conference

What Questions or Topics Should Be on the Final Exam ….

Greetings, Class Community.

Please remember to sign in to the blog before posting comments.

Once you are signed in, take a moment to post at least three questions or topics that you think should appear on the final exam. You may also want to take a moment to reply to the comments and suggestions of others. Let the contributor and class community know if you are interested in reviewing that information on the final exam or not interested in revisiting the topic.

Also, we discussed how I integrate and use some of the theories bell hooks presented in her book Teaching to Transgress: Education as the Practice of Freedom. More information about bell hooks can be accessed here. If you would like to read a printed copy of her pedagogical or teaching theories, please email me directly.

Sincerely,

Dr. Hill
