This week: Graduate Student Research Conference: Open to Public!


Thinking Gender, Imagining Reparations  |  27th Annual Thinking Gender Graduate Student Research Conference   |  February 9-10, 2017  |   UCLA Faculty Center

Thinking Gender 2017, Imagining Reparations, takes a cue from movements that conceive of violence and reparative justice intersectionally with consequences that shape and are shaped by gender, sexuality, race, class, ability, etc. We invite presentations of work from across disciplines that embodies this intersectional ethos and, in particular, envision reparations through the lens of gender and sexuality. Conference sessions will include ample time for discussion of work, emphasizing dialogue discussion, writing as important modes of conference participation, and exploring their potential as feminist, decolonial tools for learning and action. Imagining Reparations aims to create cohesion among a broad range of disciplinary engagements, theoretical stances, and practical applications by providing space for thinking together about the role of the academy in theorizing tools for collective liberation from gendered and racialized violence. 

FREE AND OPEN TO THE PUBLIC! PLEASE REGISTER ONLINE:
