“Readings of 'Tangerine' in Trans Studies, Postsocialism, and Racial Capitalism,” facilitated by Dr. Dana Ahern

Register

Join our reading group to explore the intersections of Black trans politics in the U.S., Cold War legacies, and migrant identities in a thought-provoking discussion. Together, we’ll dive into Bogdan Popa’s article, “Trans and Legacies of Socialism: Reading Queer Postsocialism in Tangerine,” which examines queer postsocialist temporality and the connections between trans/queer politics and anti-racial capitalist movements. Guiding this insightful conversation will be Dr. Dana Ahern, Assistant Professor of Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies at USF. Don’t miss this opportunity to engage with compelling ideas and connect with fellow thinkers!
