In this study, I use Rosi Braidotti's critical posthumanism to produce a cartography that tracks the production of gendered labor for five women social studies teachers. The project is intended to provide women educators in our field with a map of how their labor can become produced as a martyr-like sacrifice and the sites they found to produce their labor otherwise. This is a non-traditional dissertation as it utilizes theoretical and analytic texts to generate some of its data and presents its findings in the form of a "zine" or a homemade magazine. Chapter One defines gendered labor as the expectation that women teachers perform their labor as a sacrifice for others, being capable and responsible for "saving" children, schools, and ultimately the world. Chapter Two explains why I choose to utilize Rosi Braidotti's critical posthumanism to map the production of women social studies educators' gendered labor. Chapter Three describes how I drew on Braidotti's theories to generate data for this project. From there, the fourth chapter presents the "findings" of my cartographic analysis in a zine that I call "The Social Educator: Rewriting the Martyr Teacher Myth". Because the zine presents my findings in a non-traditional manner, I provided what I called Chapter Four and a Half to give commentary on how the zine's rhetorical and aesthetic choices address my research aims in ways congruent with my theoretical framework. Finally, Chapter Five details the significance of this project for both social studies research and the field's women practitioners. Throughout the study, I advance the concepts of "the martyr teacher myth" (MTM) and "the social educator". The MTM normalizes the performance of women teachers' labor as a willing sacrifice for others, thus obscuring its gendered connotations and regulatory force. Meanwhile, the social educator is a woman educator who operates within the constraints of a thoroughly gendered profession yet finds sites to produce her labor beyond these restrictions. Thinking with Braidotti's critical posthumanism helped me create these concepts and thus open new ways to think about and represent women social studies teachers' gendered labor.
