Please join us for an open discussion of feminist/queer/sexuality studies concerns around DH. Our panel features Chicago-based feminist/queer scholars coming together to have an open discussion on practices, pedagogies and place. Each member of the panel will be discussing the study and use of digital media platforms as tools for creation, situating knowledges, pedagogical practices, alliances, equality, and ethics. The meeting will open with brief panelist introductions to be followed by a lively conversation between and among NUDHL members.
Below are some suggested readings and projects these scholars are thinking about:
