#JCpower themes: prevelant judgement & value dominates based on race, gender & age; media often misrepresents; class supports same ideas

— Heather Ramsay (@RamsayPSU) February 28, 2014

#JCpower surprise: so much is biased; many layers of meaning in this exhibit; beauty lives in even the graphic/bold nature of the work

— Heather Ramsay (@RamsayPSU) February 28, 2014

#JCpower learned:feminism not only about women; history & certain powers formed gender roles; capitalism impacted family work values & roles

#JCpower a la Spivak; can the subaltern witness?

#JCpower something as fun as the Ellen show can display how the role of women power is the opposite of the norm and break societal fears.

the Ellen show is a modern form of art, not what we often consider, but gets her point across of many power struggle topics.modern expressiv

@RamsayPSU it impacts the overall view of how people view power

the historical witch hunts are antiquated examples of a fear of powerful females, do witch hunts exist today #JCpower

the public uproar over Miley Cyrus's overtly sexual stylings might come from a fear of an female as sexually aggressive as a male #JCpower

— Sophie (@smn177psu) March 2, 2014

print of Jackie O was very powerful and dignified because of her emotion, why are sensitivity and power deemed mutually exclusive? #JCpower

#jcpower 'The Power of Women,' Music videos, such as Beyonce, Lady Gaga; empowering as women and influential, yet highly sexualized.

#jcpower Beyonce advocating for social justice how do her videos complicate these lyrics and messages? http://t.co/JRdtvJsuvb

#jcpower Karen's 'love wins out,' and the common stories of women and portrayal, versus women taking things into her own hands. AGENCY.

@smn177psu I'd say they do – but it's reputation that's burned now, rather than the woman #JCPower

— HR Geleskie (@roseyhg) March 6, 2014

@lesliesotomayo2 some positives in these videos, but do they contribute to the idea that all female power is sexual power? #JCPower

— HR Geleskie (@roseyhg) March 6, 2014

Hillary Clinton, an amazing woman, yet all the media talks about is negative – hair, clothes, gendered: definitely fear her power. #JCPower

— HR Geleskie (@roseyhg) March 6, 2014

#JCpower I think most female figures are looked down on when they have some sort of power and people try to make them seem negative

— ❁ liz ❁ (@quueenelizabeth) March 15, 2014

#JCpower like pointing out their flaws & mistakes & making those more known than the good they have done & the power they have worked for

— ❁ liz ❁ (@quueenelizabeth) March 15, 2014

@smn177psu when a woman does what's "normal" for men & not women, it's an issue. Women arent perceived as sexually aggressive as men

— ❁ liz ❁ (@quueenelizabeth) March 15, 2014

The image of Jackie O at the funeral of JFK really spoke not to just fear of women power, but fear of power from any perspective #JCpower

— Jon Cleary (@jclearyy) March 19, 2014

@quueenelizabeth I agree, a couple of years ago, a tv show devoted an entire episode to making fun of hillary clinton's appearance #JCpower

— Jon Cleary (@jclearyy) March 19, 2014

@yenjul I thought that this was one of the more moving works as she is so young yet her look is very powerful #JCpower

— Jon Cleary (@jclearyy) March 19, 2014

@jclearyy it shows a double (or triple?) witnessing through this young girl's eyes. I wonder what she was seeing! #JCpower

— YenJu Lin (@YenjuL) March 19, 2014

@jclearyy @YenjuL I agree that this was one of the more moving works. I feel like it's also a commentary/reversal on/of the "male gaze" too.

#JCPower WendyDavis exemplifies a current figure who personifies societal fears abt female power. Opponents even call her "abortion barbie."

— Timmy Huynh (@geotimmy) March 21, 2014

@lesliesotomayo2 That vid is gone now, but re:Beyoncé, I like how she samples author Adichie's TEDx talk on feminism: http://t.co/sDZLo6FsnX

@lesliesotomayo2 Beyonce supports the ban bossy movement! #banbossy #jcpower http://t.co/GUMp3z14kH

#JCpower all of these modern day female leaders want to ban the word bossy! Check this video out! http://t.co/GUMp3z14kH @JCARTED

As Professor Houghton said, it started with Eve. The woman 'tricked' the man into eating the apple. Why are we projected that way? #jcpower
