Abstract

The present article focuses on how faculty at two different institutions independently developed academic courses utilizing feminist and intersectional theories to help empower students to “fight back” against college campus sexual violence. As college-aged women have one of the highest rates of sexual violence, it is imperative to provide them with the tools to successfully eradicate sexual violence. We discuss the two main components of our courses, rape culture and allyship, and provide specific assigned readings, class discussion topics, and active learning and reflection assignments to help instructors develop their own sexual violence prevention courses.

摘要

本文重点介绍两个不同机构的教师如何利用女权主义和交叉理论独立开发学术课程，以帮助学生“反击”大学校园性暴力。由于大学适龄女性是性暴力发生率最高的国家之一，因此必须为她们提供成功消除性暴力的工具。我们讨论课程的两个主要组成部分，强奸文化和盟友，并提供特定的指定阅读材料、课堂讨论主题以及主动学习和反思作业，以帮助教师开发自己的性暴力预防课程。
