Join the Gender + Sexuality Resource Center with support from the Program in Gender and Sexuality Studies in our Keynote event to mark Women’s History Month. This year’s speaker is Gabby Rivera. From her website: Gabby Rivera is a Bronx-born queer Puerto Rican babe on a mission to create the wildest, most fun stories ever. Gabby is the first Latina ever to write for Marvel comics, penning the solo series AMERICA about America Chavez, a portal-punching queer Latina powerhouse.

Gabby’s critically acclaimed debut novel Juliet Takes a Breath was called “f*cking outstanding” by Roxane Gay and was re-published by Penguin Random House in 2019. Mic named it one of the 25 essential books to read for Women’s History Month, and Latina magazine called it the “dopest LGBTQA YA book ever.”

The event will be moderated by Professor Monica Huerta. Monica Huerta is an assistant professor of English and American Studies at Princeton University. Her work exposes the aesthetic life of power through visual culture, photography, and law. Using humanistic inquiry (e.g. visual analysis and archival work), her work broadens our understanding of how racial capitalism reproduces itself.

Her forthcoming book, The Unintended: Photography, Property, and the Aesthetics of Racial Capitalism (NYU Press, 2023) follows the little-explored trajectory of photography through late-nineteenth and early-twentieth century law. It uses questions generated by studies of racial capitalism to attune to an aesthetics of whiteness that instantiates property rights in images. The Unintended is part of the America and the Long 19th Century series.

GSRC Open Trainings: Queering Body Size

November 29th, 6 PM – 8 PM

GSRC Conference Room (Frist 243)

Join the Assistant Director of the Gender + Sexuality Resource Center in a regular series that discusses through trainings and dialogues the various, multiple conversations on justice that embody the broader conversations on marginalized gender and sexual identities.

The first in this series will be centering on body size and fat liberation movements. Using leading scholarship and lived experience, participants will engage in a guided dialogue that delves into the history of Fat Liberation movements and its proximity to queerness, the systemic inequities that people of larger sizes face, the direct correlations to gender and sexuality, what does it mean to radically embrace loving yourself, and how conversations centering body size relate to other social justice movements.

This event is open to Princeton staff and students, please register here: https://bit.ly/gsrctrainingqbs
