In Class:
Journal-- Reflect on the importance of gossip and the oral tradition in TEWWG. "[The 'colored people'] were there with their tongues cocked and loaded, the only real weapon left to weak folks. The only killing tool they are allowed to use in the presence of white folks" (Hurston 185-6).
Students worked independently on:
- Sharpening up midterm projects and preparing to present on Monday.
- Reading handout including "It's More Than Just Rain or Snow" and "If She Comes Up, It's Baptism" from How to Read Literature Like a Professor. (This will help decode the hurricane from TEWWG.)
- Catching up on missing work (three discussion questions from p. 154-90; finish TEWWG; any other missing assignments.)
Exit ticket: Define 'psychoanalysis.'
Homework:
Prepare for your presentation on Monday.
Write one paragraph recapping an instance in which your sex or gender made a difference (subtle or explicit) in the outcome of the event.
Catch up on any missing work.
