Conceptualizing ‘Nuke’ Girlhood: Literary Dimensions of Girls’ Nuke Traumatic Experience in Nuclear Fiction for Young Adults : symposium materials
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This symposium invited exploration of what it means to theorize through and with the girl and the category of girlhood.Well beyond the boundaries of "girlhood studies," the girl often lurks where she is not an explicit subject of inquiry.As a figure enmeshed in processes of racial capitalism, colonialism, and carcerality, how might the girl inform visions of, and struggles for, transformation and liberation?In joining ongoing critical conversations in the field of Black girlhood studies and beyond, the symposium positions critical girlhood studies as a viable field that has much to offer contemporary modes of thought and inquiry.This symposium centers critical conversations on the generative tensions and future possibilities of scholarship on girls and girlhoods.What does it mean to invoke "the girl" as the central subject of research and inquiry?In an ever-shifting landscape of gender politics that push beyond binary categories and narrow identities, what does the category of "the girl" have to offer critical research?How are scholars attending to shifting definitions of "the girl" and "girlhood"?And how might these generative tensions push the field of girlhood studies in new, critical directions?These are the questions "The Girl in Theory" explores. Some themes this symposium investigates: (Re)defining the "girl" / challenging the bounds of girlhood Racializing, queering, transing, and cripping girlhoods Possibilities of indigenous and transnational girlhoods beyond the legacies of colonialism Semiotics, affect, and aesthetics of girlhood (appropriative, sexualized, or otherwise) Girlhood as it (dis)appears in history, media, literature, or art Girlhood in public institutions (carceral, educational, governmental) and processes Futures of Girlhood Studies as a field or discipline This symposium is the first annual conference by the Girlhood Studies Collective, a new community of scholars, researchers, and practitioners who do critical work on the girl, girlhood, and girls' culture.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
