  • Empowerment of Women in the Colonial Era: Doña Marina and Erendira Ikikunari Initial Post: During the colonial era, women were often seen as inferior and were subjected to various forms of oppression and abuse. However

    What you need to do:
    The discussion has two parts, and you must be mindful to respond to both. 
    An initial post of at least 200 words  is due by Thursday at Midnight
    Respond to two classmates of 100 words each are due by Sunday at Midnight. 
    Discussion:
    During the colonial era, cases such as sexual abuse were not considered important, and rape functions to express and confirm power, dominance, and control by the dominant class. There is also manipulation of gender codes to enforce the hierarchy of dominance and submission. The dominant gender compels their political opposition to assume the subordinate, “feminine” positions. Instead of assigning and controlling gender codes, their opponents fall victim to the excessive enactment of the explosion of hyper-masculinity. However,  the women in our readings Doña Marina and from our film Erendira Ikikunari, were able to overcome this adversities constructed by men.  Of the women previously mentioned who had the biggest impact on you? Please elaborate your answer. Look for ways to connect with your classmates. A quality post is one that moves the discussion forward in which conversation goes back and forth several times not just once. One-liners do not constitute a quality post.
