Our course examines the history of oppressive and harmful medical practices in relation to women and people of color. Examples include harmful stereotypes and preconceptions (hysteria, madwomen, schizophrenic activists, pain tolerance) and experimentation as well as non-consensual sterilization practices. Students will be working in groups of three. Entries drafted/edited will be more historical/cultural/conceptual. We will endeavor to stay away from Medical entries as we are a WGST course, not medical, and editing those articles entails more stringent rules. Though, students are not discouraged from doing so if this seems like the best article choice for the team.

- Assignment - Written Reflection
Write up a reflection of your contribution to your group's collective effort. This can be 500 - 800 words. This will help you articulate what you did since as we all know by now, the substance of your work can often appear invisible when you look at the final contribution. Research can be humbling like that, but this helps you remember that you really did a lot of work.
