CUIRING BLACK GENDERS AND SEXUALITIES IN THE AMERICAS
AUGUST 17 - 20
ONLINE EVENTS
This month-long series of LIVES is a hemispheric discussion of Afro-Cuir/Quare/Kuir Studies across the diaspora in the Americas. The goal of the series is to continue a longer tradition of taking stock and exchanging ideas among a people who have been dispersed and isolated by colonially imposed languages and boundaries. Within these contexts, Black scholars and artivists have been producing theory to help all of us better understand our positionality as racialized, gendered and sexualized subjects. Starting from the perspective of scholars such as Brazilian writer/poet Tatiana Nacimiento, the Black-sexual-dissident embodies anti-colonialism and the persistence African cultural legacies across the diaspora. Could it be that Afro-Cuir/Quare/Kuir Studies offers theories for liberation, or what it means to be in the West but not of the West? In this series, scholars, poets, artivists working in this area will share their thoughts. In this historic moment of profound change, where the question of race is being directly engaged, let’s get together to think and discuss.
The event is sponsored by the Brazilian Association of Black Teachers and Researchers and the Center for Latin American Studies
