I came into this class expecting to learn mostly about queer literature and stories, and while a big portion of class was spent doing exactly that, I thought it interesting how a lot of the course schedule was spent developing a sense of “reading” rather than just reading on your own. In texts, we read “in between the lines” to find meaning where there was not one explicitly stated, we read video clips and movies, we read each other’s presentations, we read the room a lot of the time when deciding how to structure our class time. It was all a sense of learning that felt expansive and not limited to one single mode.
