PhD thesis defence: Clare Bermingham, "Feeling Queer Together: Identity, Community, and the Work of Affect in the Pre-Stonewall Lesbian Magazine, The Ladder"
WORKSHOP ANNOUNCEMENT:
Come and enjoy cheese and pastries, relaxed conversation, and a discussion of crime in medieval England.
In this workshop, we will collaborate to address the ableist attitudes, policies, and practices that are built into higher education. We will also interrogate the minimal and temporary means we have been given to address inequities, and the cost such an approach has for disabled students and faculty. Finally, we will explore how to design our own classrooms, in advance, in ways that anticipate and welcome different avenues for learning, means of expression, and modes of knowledge-creation.
Christine Bold is Professor of English and Killam Research Fellow, University of Guelph. She has published six books and many essays on popular culture and cultural memory, most recently the award-winning The Frontier Club: Popular Westerns and Cultural Power, 1880-1924.
Dr. Christine Bold, Professor of English and Killam Research Fellow, University of Guelph, will give a talk at UWaterloo, “Indigenous Performers, Vaudeville, and Building Relations of Research Exchange.”
As the University of Guelph writes: “Indigenous Performers, Vaudeville, and Building Relations of Research Exchange” is part of “a research project that [Bold] says upends long-held notions of the role Native peoples played in the popular culture of the late 1800s and early 1900s.
The opening act will be Yutong Wu.
