Abstract: »Heather Hewett charts how her students' accusations of "toxic masculinity" prompted her to rethink teaching Things Fall Apart, adding feminist pedagogy and contextual information about African masculinities to traditional postcolonial and antiracist approaches.« (Source: Hewett, Heather, et al.»Introduction: Literary Studies as Literary Activism.« #MeToo and Literary Studies: Reading, Writing, and Teaching about Sexual Violence and Rape Culture. Edited Mary K. Holland et al. New York 2021: 12.)
