Episode 143: Analyzing Gender Stereotyping Using Relational Density Theory with Elana Sickman

In Episode 143, we continue the conversation that started in Episode 95 with Claire Zuch on Relational Density Theory.  In Claire's episode, we dug deep into RDT and looked at ableism using this fascinating new theory.  In this conversation with Claire's co-authors and colleagues, Elana Sickman digs into gender stereotyping using RDT as a framework of analysis.  This is a fascinating conversation with far-reaching implications for addressing important problems in the world!
