Khalia Phillips spoke with BTB in Summer 2019 before she left to begin her graduate career at George Washington University. She is pursuing a Master’s degree in Public Policy, with a concentration in Women’s, Gender, & Sexuality Studies, that falls more in line with her political interests and Black feminist/womanist ideologies.
In May 2019, Khalia graduated with a B.S. in Accounting. In this podcast she shares why and how she made such great leaps from Accounting to Gender Studies. Those of you conflicted between a “logical” major and a “passion” major will gain a great deal from how you can have both.
In the podcast, Khalia also shares her scholarly research, ”Jezebel, the Virgin: A Critique of the Sex Positive Feminist Movement”, was centered on the complexities of Black women, the social construction of virginity, and the concept of mainstream sex positivity. Essentially, it’s a literature review that looks at the socio-historical context that Black women’s sexuality is situated, a historical understanding of “virginity”, and the critical gaps within the mainstream sex positive feminist movement. Khalia Phillips is a Rocky Mount native and was active in TRiO Student Support Services and McNair Scholars Program at NC State. This episode was recorded Fall 2019.
