Future Events
Save the date for our 2019 graduate symposium: February 15, 2019!
We are pleased to announce our 2019 symposium on social justice in the city. This year’s symposium, VOICES: Visibility, Orientation, Identity, Creativity, Environment, Spaces, seeks to understand creative approaches to how inequalities are negotiated, socially, culturally, and institutionally. Our keynote speaker, Dr. Ernesto Martinez, is an Associate Professor in Ethnic Studies at the University of Oregon. His research interests include queer ethnic studies, women of color feminisms, US Latinx literature and culture, and literary theory. He is the author of “On Making Sense: Queer Race Narratives of Intelligibility” (Stanford UP, 2012) and "The Truly Diverse Faculty: New Dialogues in American Higher Education” (Palgrave, 2014). Along with his academic achievements, Dr. Martinez also writes bilingual Latinx children’s books, produces films (“La Sarentata” 2017), and serves as a board member for the Association for Jotería Arts, Activism, and Scholarship (AJAAS), a queer Latinx grassroots organization dedicated to producing art and analyzing culture and politics in the context of activism. More information forthcoming.
