Tema Stauffer and Dr. Leslie Bickford will discuss the photographs in Southern Fiction, on view in the Rutledge Gallery of the Winthrop University Galleries through October 6. Dr. Bickford has taught widely in the areas of twentieth-century American literature and African American literature. Her research interests include investigating the ways in which hegemonic discourse works to shape subjectivity and, conversely, in understanding the ways in which peoples othered by discourse on the basis of race, sex, nationality, or sexual preference resist such inscription through the creative use of language.
