Non-binary Lives in Divided Times

Divided postwar Berlin was home to people of different non-binary genders. They found or made spaces for living dignified lives, even in the deeply queerphobic societies of Cold War Germany. In her talk, Andrea Rottmann will introduce us to some of them and to the pleasures and problems of writing their histories.

Lectures in Catholic Experience presents Dr. Catherine Clifford

Canadian theologian Dr. Catherine Clifford will be speaking about "From Vatican II to a Synodal Church." She will reflect on her experiences as a voting delegate at both sessions of the recent "Synod on Synodality" (Fall 2023 and 2024) and explore how the seeds of Synodality planted sixty years ago by the Second Vatican Council are yielding positive results for the Church as it responds to the needs of the 21st century.

Drawing on various scholars, Dr Zoe Todd critiques the push to 'braid' Indigenous and settler paradigms in conservation. As a Red River Métis scholar, Dr Todd advocates for the radical refusal of systems based on white possession and individualism, urging western institutions to embrace Indigenous practices and global anti-imperialist solidarities.

Join the Anti-Oppression Knowledge Integrators working group for an open discussion about the place of anti-oppression work (e.g. decolonization, justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion) at the University of Waterloo.

Globally, anti-oppression work is under attack – it is time to ask, “why does on-campus anti-oppression work matter?”

Come join the discussion: March 7th at 2:30 pm EV2-2002.
