• Weston, Real Time. chaps. 4, 5; psych it out and examine footnotes carefully
How does Weston's book help us think about who we are, who we were, who we are becoming?
What tools does she give us for such explorations? Why does this matter in a women's studies curriculum?
How does this connect us to other fields of study, other activisms?
What does Weston's book do for us when we consider transnational feminisms and intersectional methods and identities?
Kath Weston on"time claims": "There can be no time claim without a time frame: history, infinity, chronology, generation, era, future/past. Implicit in these claims are modes of temporality (regressing, moving ahead, modern traditions, coming back around) and morality (stolen futures, lost generation, better days). In relativizing fashion, time claims tether me, you, and our brother's keeper to our respective timespots .... Time claims can even naturalize or denaturalize the very modes of reckoning embedded within them."
