GSST 091. Seminar: Activating Feminist, Queer, and Trans Theory

This course offers a deep immersion in theory in practice. Moving across the spheres of art, social activism, political theory, and medical anthropology, we will explore how intersectional and global approaches to gender and sexuality can reshape common-sense assumptions about social life. As a capstone seminar, students will be asked to bring their own interdisciplinary research projects. Students can expect to leave with a sharpened sense of interdisciplinary critique and practice, as well as methods for pursuing collaborative intellectual/political endeavors after graduation.
