Writing this it’s hard to believe it’s been a whole semester. It seems like just yesterday I was trying to figure out how to set up this blog. I really enjoyed going through this course content and exploring different viewpoints with classmates. It was very interesting to come together and discuss in the format that we all did. I thank everyone for being so open, honest and respectful throughout the term.

Personally my favourite topic we discussed this semester was Rosario Castellanos “Cooking Lessons”. I found that the content was relatable in terms of questioning what someone’s purpose is (particularly being a women myself) and being able to look back and question what her place was/is and should be moving forward. It gave us a view into feminism and ideas surrounding expectations around married women in Latin America but also around the world.
