Abstract

This discussion activity introduces students to the #SayHerName movement and the concept of misogynoir. Specifically, students will engage with three readings that detail stories of police and state violence against African American and Black women, discuss the anti-Black racist sexism that Black women experience, and highlight the digital resistance that Black girls, women, gender nonconforming, and trans folk employ. These texts inform their subsequent engagement with the documentary, Say Her Name: The Life and Death of Sandra Bland.
