Summary: | Thismasters research project, All Kinds of People, All Kinds of Ways, proposes that gender is a constructed concept producedby colonial, capitalist, and patriarchal structures. This is illustrated through a three-channel video installation ofthe same name that utilizes conversations with two-spirit, Anishinaabe participants whose traditions express the fluidityof genderidentity. The research done inthis paper further supports these discussionsthrough an analysisof feminist andqueer theory, as well as a look atvarious cultures around the world that have similar understandings of non-fixed gender.
