19 & 22 April: Rizvana Bradley / DOING GENDER workshop and lecture at Gender Studies

The Netherlands Research School of Gender Studies organises the DOING GENDER Lecture Series in cooperation with her partners. These lectures stress the importance of doing gender work combined with an active involvement in the practice of gender theory and research. The concept of DOING GENDER supports a hands-on approach to gender issues in the sense of social and political engagement with the new forms of gender inequalities that are taking shape in the world today. The lecture series wants to give space to the new generations of gender theorists and practitioners and to perspectives that innovate the field and do gender in new ways. Key is the notion of doing gender: what is the state of the art definition of gender? How do contemporary scholars and activists utilise this definition?

On Monday April 22, 2024, Dr. Rizvana Bradley (University of California, Berkley) will give the Doing Gender Lecture Flesh Before Body, Earth Before World. Additionally, NOG, alongside Terra Critica and Critical Pathways have organized a workshop entitled The Critique of Form: Anteaesthetics and Black Aesthesis, taking place on Friday, April 19, 2024.
