stuff I’ve been reading

on the web, which isn’t where I should be doing reading, considering I’m supposed to be doing thesis research:

• Red Jenny: Economic Growth Creates Poverty in the World and The Good Life and the Economy

• Sigel Phoenix’s Women and Violence series, which is an excellent deconstruction of the ways in which gendered violence is embedded in our society and normalized through social structures
• Tekanji’s Privilege in Action and Privilege List series (for anyone who ever wondered what the heck privilege is all about, and can’t seem to grasp that it doesn’t necessarily mean that you get “stuff” as a result - there’s about 20 posts thus far, go read ‘em all)
• Nezua’s The White Lens series, which is just plain amazing for pointing out the ways in which white people are racist and it’s built into the whole damn way we have constructed society (for anyone who had difficulty with my recent post on the subject)

Ok, go on now, get going!
