#bellhooks — Public Fediverse posts

Is it possible to apply bell hooks' idea of "excitement" in the classroom to the Italian state school context?

Here are my ideas on how to try:

This hooks masterpiece should be required reading. Not simply, there is nothing objective or neutral about any act of educating. Our active awareness here can only make us better at our craft.

My new blog post: a reflection on the role of a teacher and on my hopes for the future, starting from a quote by bell hooks.

Teaching as an act of resistance

Can anyone share recent(ish) research on 'teacher well-being' since #HybridTeaching (eg #EmergencyRemoteTeaching) #GAI?

Thinking of #TeachingToTransgress (p 15):

"teachers must be [...] committed to [...] own well-being" to help students.

"Drag dramatizes and makes explicit mundane, everyday gender rituals and, through this repetition of gendered actions, suggests that essentialist presumptions about correct or authentic genders can be reworked (#JudithButler , 1990, p.338)."

‘To choose to appear as “female” when one is male is always constructed… as a loss, as a choice worthy only of ridicule’ (#bellHooks, 1992, p.145).
