Women and Gender Studies, 5/30/07
Madeline seemed to be stuck in "giggling like crazy" mode at the start of class, so for once Sylvia was the one to do all the talking.
"Sit down, sit down, let's get started, shall we? Today we've got a special treat for you: some friends of ours from our own Women's Studies courses, Holly and Molly, have agreed to come and perform their performance art piece 'Sister Woman Sister'. So try to humor them, alright?
With that, she stepped back, and two women wearing "wife-beater" tank tops strode to the front of the class. The first one spoke:
"Welcome, students. My name is Holly and my partner Molly and I would like to thank Madeline and Sylvia for inviting us here today to perform for you." Holly gestured to Molly, who held a pair of bongos.
"We'd like to start with an original tune. . . ."
Sister Woman Sister, NWS version
Sister Woman Sister, work safe version
When the performance was done with, Sylvia stepped back up, applauding bemusedly. "Thank you Holly, thank you Molly. You know, I've seen you do that a dozen times now, and I still don't know what the hell you're talking about. Well." She turned to the students. "Holly and Molly will be here to answer any questions you may have. If you're not asking them questions, I'd like you all to pair up and plan your own performance art pieces about gender. Maybe we'll even perform 'em next week. Who knows?"
