weekend reading 2

I'll admit outright that I didn't speak to Mrs. Lawson last Friday to discuss motifs/trends to look for, but it may have been for the better. Over the weekend, I completed Part I of The Intersectional Approach by reading "A Conversation with Founding Scholars of Intersectionality: Kimberle Crenshaw, Nira Yuval-Davis, and Michelle Fine". This conversation was enlightening because it discussed the basics of intersectionality. Reading each scholar introduce their niche in the field/study of intersectionality built a foundation for my overall knowledge and understanding. Part II of the book is entitled "Theoretical Explorations", which I assume will be much denser than Part I. Now I think it is imperative Mrs. Lawson and I discuss how narrow/what topics we are going to focus on after reading this book. Our first day 8 meeting should be the perfect time for this conversation.
