The discussion this week has two parts
1. Discuss the representations of hegemonic masculinity in the
play. How does the writer “interrupt” these representations?
2. If we agree that feminism is the framework for understanding
the oppression of women, and that this understanding includes
the belief that women are equal to men, what are some of the
things that the women do in this play to help us see the
inequality in their lives. Think in terms of gender AND race.
