Terrific post, Lindsay! I’m
Terrific post, Lindsay! I'm struck by how all of the clips so far have been both so full of affect and so unsettling: there's something striking about this IMR week's prolonged focus on visuals of female affect, agency, and negotiation; it& ... -
I’m so glad you’re bringing
I'm so glad you're bringing up all these issues. Louisa and i talked last night and both thought that we somehow needed to make clear that there was a reason Louisa's vid went last, that the week was thematically related but also, maybe, i ... -
