Part Two will be a guide to works representing additional feminist theories of gender oppression as well as feminist alternatives. It will take up collection development on the following topics:

  • Feminist Theories of Intersectionality
  • Feminist Theories of Queer Identity

By the end of this webinar, the participant will be able to:
