This collection will be a resource for undergraduate courses throughout the U.S. and Canada that will help students understand the bigger history of systemic oppression behind
gender-based violence. The editors seek contributions that range across academic fields but share the intention to expose gender violence, intervene in its production and reproduction, and reimagine ways of ending gender violence through feminist pedagogies
with a commitment to intersectionality and decolonial action. Foci can be internal to the academy or it can extend to all areas of society—discerning and critiquing the various ways in which gender violence is part of our lived experience and embodied practices.
