Intersections: New Grammars of the X

Lunes 26 de mayo, 1:45 – 3:15 pm

Discussion: intersectionality as a tool to reimagine the violent nature of geopolitical, symbolic, racial, gendered, and class borders. This presidential panel will examine the intersections between activism, art, life, social change, and the possibilities of living on the borders. It will discuss intersectionality as a tool of action to decolonize and promote dialogic strategies counteracting the imperatives that hierarchize bodies and their cultural genealogies.

Session Organizer: Cecilia Fajardo-Hill, Arizona State University

Chair: Lawrence M. La Fountain-Stokes, University of Michigan
