5. English Major Lingo and getting academic with the feminist and gender lens

Today Chelsey and Sara dig up some well-loved English major lingo and dust it off. We're talking about critical theory and how it enhances our reading lives, starting with the feminist or gender lens. We provide examples and suggestions for how to incorporate critical theory into your everyday reading life because you don't have to be a teacher, English major, or scholar in order to get the most out of this tool!
