I’m a folklorist and a pop culture scholar, teaching literature & film, ethnographic material, history, cultural studies and media studies in the CCY program for over twenty years. My courses take intersectional approaches to the study of young people’s lives, experiences and texts, considering the category of age as it affects and is affected by discourses around race & ethnicity, gender & sexuality, ability and socio-economic status. Particular attention is paid to the ways that young people create, manage, negotiate and perform identity in interaction with peers, adults and institutions.
