This lecture series concludes the research project on “Integrating Women’s and Gender Studies.” It features a performance and a series of lectures by students and faculty members of the JLU and the Graduate Center for the Study of Culture. Some sessions will deal with questions of how gender, queer, and intersectionality theory have impacted on the disciplines of sociology, literary, theater, cultural studies, and history generally. In others, speakers will introduce specific projects that interrogate and un/do the gender binary or involve queer politics and/or intersectional research. Look forward to talks on subjects such as confronting the challenge of how popular science reifies gender, on country houses as queer spaces, on twentieth and twenty-first-century Black masculinities, on intersectionality and ageing, and on writing the feminine voice as an emancipatory act. Listen in. Act up.
