very interesting to hear a perspective of somebody that actually lived the history. I liked discovering more about events I heard in passing and being challenged to think even more about these topics.

Bettina is amazing! Her content is straight forward. Every step of they way there is an intersectional analysis. The course should be called Intersectionality.
