On cubes, people, and snacks by Siobhán K Cronin

This is a story about cubes, people, and snacks. Together we will explore what these deceptively simple words can teach us about the fundamentals of stereotype threat, institutional oppression, and the internalization of fear and shame. How do we construct our knowledge of others? Where does such knowing originate? Will there be cupcakes at our liberation celebration party? All this (and more) will be discussed.
