The Duality of Female Criminality: Exploring the Media’s Portrayal of Aileen Wuornos in MONSTER (2003) through a Feminist Criminology Lens
**the media being discussed in this analysis is the film MONSTER (2003) starring Charlize Theron. The film depicts the life of American serial killer, Aileen Wuornos.**
in the essay, incorporate course themes and topics such as how femininity can conflict with accepted definitions of crime, violence and disorder, the duality of women as both victims and offenders, repeated victimization of women resulting in criminality and violence against women in Canadian prisons. Another important topic to consider is the role of the media in the perception of female criminality. CLEARLY identify the crime and gender issue being discussed and make sure to incorprate feminist criminology into the essay as well as the pathologization of women who come into the criminal justice system.

“The Power of Self-Discovery: How One Book Shaped My Transition from Middle to High School” During my transition from middle to high school, one book that had a profound impact on me was “The Alchemist” by Paulo Coelho.

Please share a book (novel, non-fiction, etc.) that had a serious impact on you during this time.

Feel free to use your discretion in your choice of the timeline focused on the shift to your high school years.* -

Title: “Exploring the Foundations and Evolution of Ethnic Studies”
In the first half of the “Why Ethnic Studies” unit, we have explored the definition, interdisciplinary nature, and geohistorical macroscales of Ethnic Studies. The field focuses on the experiences and perspectives of Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) communities, drawing from various disciplines to provide a comprehensive understanding of the challenges faced by these groups. Ethnic Studies scholars maintain a critical stance towards traditional disciplines, questioning how they may perpetuate systems of power and domination. The four geohistorical macroscales – Indigeneity and Active Roots, Coloniality, Dehumanization, and Genocide, Hegemony and Normalization, and Decoloniality, Regeneration, and Transformational Resistance – guide the scope and approach of Ethnic Studies.
We have also delved into the historical roots of Ethnic Studies, exploring Native and Indigenous pedagogies, traditions of education and resistance, and challenges to legal segregation. Despite the ongoing effects of settler-colonialism and oppressive educational systems, communities of color have consistently fought for the right to education and created alternative educational spaces. Landmark legal cases challenged racial segregation in public schools, laying the groundwork for the emergence of Ethnic Studies.
Lastly, we examined the student-led activism and protests of the late 1960s that led to the establishment of Ethnic Studies as an academic discipline. The Third World Liberation Front at San Francisco State College initiated the longest student strike, demanding the creation of a Third World College and the hiring of more faculty of color. The strikes led to significant victories, inspiring the creation of Ethnic Studies programs and departments across the United States.
