More From: "Defining Racism: 'Can We Talk?'" by...
Though I have often heard students or workshop participants describe someone as not having “a prejudiced bone in his body,” I usually suggest that they look again. Prejudice is one of the inescapable consequences of living in a racist society. Cultural racism—the cultural images and messages that affirm the assumed superiority of Whites and the assumed inferiority of...

"Defining Racism: 'Can We Talk?'" by Beverly...
Some examples will highlight this process. Several years ago one of my students conducted a research project investigating preschoolers’ conceptions of Native Americans. Using children at a local day care center as her participants, she asked these three- and four-year-olds to draw a picture of a Native American. Most children were stumped by her request. They didn’t know what a...

"Global Woman" by Barbara Enrenreich and Arlie...
…But it would be a mistake to attribute the globalization of women’s work to a simple synergy of needs among women— one group, in the affluent countries, needing help and the other, in poor countries, needing jobs. For one thing, this formulation fails to account for the marked failure of First World governments to meet the needs created by its women’s entry into the...

"Masculinities and Globalization," by Raewyn W....
Masculinities do not first exist and then come into contact with femininites; they are produced together, in the process that constitutes a gender order. Accordingly, to understand masculinities on a world scale, we must first have a concept of the globalization of gender.
… The structure bears the mark of its history. Modern global society was historically produced as...

Giveaway #1: Chien's Multifandom Giveaway! (Ends...
EXTENDED TILL NOVEMBER 11, FRIDAY NIGHT AT MIDNIGHT PST! Sorry, didn’t realize my theme was not letting people reblog!
Here’s that giveaway I mentioned! I’ve had a splendid time hanging out on Tumblr with all of you, so this is my attempt to give back. I realize that people who follow me are not all Vocaloid fans and even less of them are Hetalia fans, so I decided to...
Last night:
Mom: Hey Chien, you should come home early tomorrow so you and I can go get massages and hang out! I go back to Taiwan in two weeks! Also, you should probably stay home and continue packing up your room because they’re remodeling your room on Monday.
Today:
I actually stayed in because I stayed up until 6AM doing Physics homework, and I’m required to get eight hours of...

I’ve been pretty evenly split between liking/ disliking the 51’s so far. If you do go for him I look forward to your review and seeing him with the others. Also, what’ll happen to old!Kon?
I try to do a big review whenever I get a new doll, so if I do get a 51 I most def will crack one out! A lot of the 51...

Is Cuba, the Guy with Sunglasses, the new Kon? His face is pretty basic but I prefer it over the first and second Idealian51’s. Third was good because omg Zinc, and fourth was… ehhh. So maybe basic is better then. I can always just sell to get a better one if it comes up.
I like him a whole lot, wow! I think he’d be perfect at this point, compared to the other...

I so thought of you when I saw him, knowing you were looking at ID51, totally not a creeper or anything XD

Cuba works pretty well with his dreamy squinty-eyed goodness and...

Superman: A Hero Who Evolved with the Times
Here is another essay I wrote during the time when I had really bad diplopia, so I was registered as a disabled student at school. As a result, my professor allowed me to submit essays that were not proofread. So please pardon grammatical and spelling errors. :,3 I still have diplopia actually, but it’s not as ridiculous. Oh health, you so crazy.
Anyway, I thought this essay might be of...

There And Back Again: A Super-Smooth Hobbits Tale
When I sent this video to Susana earlier this was our exchange:
Susana: I have not clicked on this link yet but my face is :D Me: It should be.
Elijah Wood (Frodo), Sean Astin (Sam), Billy Boyd (Pippin) and Dominic Monaghan (Merry) are reuniting and it makes us nostalgia so bad.
I think I actually melted and dripped right off my chair when...

Over the last few months concerns around women and comics, particularly comics from the big two have been getting industry attention.
For years people and sites like When Fan Girls attack, founded by Kalinara and Ragnell and run later Maddy and Caitlin, GirlWonder.Org, Sequential Tart, and others have talked and talked and talked about the how the representation of women in...
