A Brief Exercise in "Currere" and Bathroom Bills
Suarez, Mario I.; Lai Hing, Ebony; Slattery, Patrick
Journal of Curriculum and Pedagogy, v15 n3 p278-283 2018
North Carolina voted into law legislation known as the Privacy Facilities and Security Act, commonly known as HB2 or the anti-transgender "bathroom bill." We use Pinar's (1975a, 1975b, 2012) "currere" methodology as a brief exercise in deconstructing this bathroom bill and others similar to it. In this short piece, we go through each moment: the regressive, progressive, analytical, and synthetical. Historical, social, and biological aspects of the bill are discussed and critically analyzed to outline a pathway to a synthetical moment that includes cultural reconceptualization, social justice, and equality for disenfranchised groups such as transgender, intersex, and gender nonconforming people.
