Led by WGS affiliates David Getsy and Cole Rizki, the working group will “have two main foci: first, to discuss the role of global history within transgender studies and, second, to encourage development of curricular and research activities in transgender studies at the University of Virginia. The working group will engage in research exchanges among members and develop public-facing programs in Spring 2023 to incite interdepartmental and interdisciplinary conversations.”
Mikki Kendall in conversation with the Women’s Center
Description:
Come hear Mikki Kendall, author of Hood Feminism and Amazons, Abolitionists, and Activists: A Graphic History of Women's Fight for Their Rights, and her inspirational message on why we can't wait to meet the basic survival needs of everyone. In reminding us that food insecurity, access to quality education, safe neighborhoods, a living wage, and medical care are all feminist issues, she issues a ferocious clarion call to all would-be feminists to live out true community care of all.

by Lanice R. Avery,
Catherine of Aragon, the first wife of Henry VIII, enjoyed embroidery and fasting. Little in the historical record suggests that she was any fun at a party.
Please join the WGS Department in congratulating Lanice Avery, who has a new paper out in the Journal of Research on Adolescence (a top-tier developmental science journal).
As she reports, the journal decided to spotlight their article on their webpage and social media, and invited them to write a blogpost for the article and do a video interview with the Society for Research on Adolescence team to help them further disseminate their findings to developmental scientists.
Congratulations, Lanice!
