In thinking about a path forward for IREL, we reflected both on this collective moment and the decisions each of us as individuals faces navigating the world right now.

Grief and rage. Hope and determination. Resilience and resistance. Clarity and commitment.

In community, freedom. #IREL25

Day 2 is the Call-to-Action Workshop.

Consider this an IREL intensive, where we reflect, discuss, share, and plan a path forward. This will be a practical, hands-on workshop led by members of our IREL team.

THU, July 10: 9 AM to 11:15 AM ET

Dispatch From The Ruins: (School The Eleventh Incitement) from Ross Gay’s Inciting Joy is all about making “beautiful shit together” in spite of and under oppressive educational systems. The entire essay is utterly delightful and inspiring.

I also wonder/am frustrated by how many might see Wicked (and love it) and not see the ways that fascism and racism and sexism are operating in both the film and well… everywhere.

I didn’t love Wizard of Oz, more that it was just one of those movies I was supposed to love. When I think back to the scenes that stood out to me most in that movie, it was when the Wicked witch was melting and then when Dorothy was reunited with her grandparents.

I do think that it could be part of a text set on Whiteness (and White feminism specifically) that would include Succession, the Barbie movie, and Gatsby. If I was teaching a college class, we’d look at the characters of Glinda, Siobhan, Barbie, and Daisy.

Ha!

Oh my gosh, thank you so much for reading and sharing! 🥰 I hope it is helpful! Please reach out if I can answer any questions!

Exactly! Observed too many people saying things like “it’s all the same and what’s the big deal” and making false equivalences to generative AI. It’s really concerning.
