Few people among the hundreds of millions that have populated the United States have stood where Jack Dodger stood on that November night.

Will Grandpa Jack win the election? And will he survive the process? What will he learn about himself and his country along the way? Join Grandpa Jack on a journey that takes him from coast to coast and from the depth of disillusionment to the pinnacle of pride.

Book Synopsis Affective Sexual Pedagogies in Film and Television by : Kyra Clarke
Download or read book Affective Sexual Pedagogies in Film and Television written by Kyra Clarke and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2017-02-17 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Popular film and television hold valuable potential for learning about sex and sexuality beyond the information-based model of sex education currently in schools. This book argues that the representation of complicated—or "messy"—relationships in these popular cultural forms makes them potent as affective pedagogical moments. It endeavours to develop new sexual literacies by contemplating how pedagogical moments, that is, fleeting moments which disrupt expectations or create discomfort, might enrich the available discourses of sexuality and gender, especially those available to adolescents. In Part One, Clarke critiques the heteronormative discourses of sex education that produce youth in particularly gendered ways, noting that "rationality" is often expected to govern experiences that are embodied and arguably inherently incoherent. Part Two explores public intimacy, contemplating the often overlapping and confused boundaries between public and private.
