In early 2021, the Nunn Center and Dr. Janice Fernheimer partnered to launch the Women in Bourbon Oral History Project. This oral history project, built in collaboration with students, documents women who have played important roles in Kentucky’s bourbon industry. Doug Boyd and Janice Fernheimer reflect on this phase of the oral history project and some key themes expressed in the interviews.

Justice on Trial- KYGWS Conference

We are excited to announce the 5th KYGWS Conference!  

This year’s theme is “Justice on Trial.” As left-wing politicians and activists across the globe work for human rights and protections, right-wing parties have meanwhile paved the way for conservative laws that harm the bodily autonomy of women, people of color, LGBTQ+ people, and other marginalized communities. Anti-abortion laws, anti-trans laws, and encroachment on academic freedom are just a few examples of the injustices people are facing at this juncture.

With this landscape in mind, this year’s conference will address the theme of justice, considering issues faced worldwide, such as (but not limited to) human rights, accessibility, inclusivity, and autonomy.

Mission and Commitment

The Department of Gender and Women's Studies aims to serve the university and the Commonwealth through promotion of equity and commitment to excellence. 

We are committed to research and teaching about the lives, cultures, perspectives, and activities of women globally.  We believe that what are commonly referred to as "women's issues" are societal issues that affect all individuals, regardless of gender. 

How I Teach It: "Teaching Intersectionality: Highlighting the Strategies and Stories of International Graduate Instructors"

In this series we celebrate and discuss the ways that scholars around campus teach complex gender and women's studies concepts like feminisms, gender, sex, and intersectionality among others.  A 30-45 minute discussion/presentation of pedagogies, challenges and controversies by the scholar(s) is followed by a Q&A with the audience.  

This session's these is "Teaching Intersectionality: Highlighting the Strategies and Stories of International Graduate Instructors"
