The Palgrave Handbook of Feminist, Queer and Trans* Narrative Studies This Palgrave Handbook provides a comprehensive overview of the intersection between narrative theory and feminist, queer, and trans* theory.

Thrilled to have a chapter on "Queer Formalism" in The Palgrave Handbook of Feminist, Queer and Trans* Narrative Studies, which is a wonderful new collection edited by Vera NΓΌnning & Corinna Assmann that everyone should check out ASAP!

Available for preorder, Aesthetic Impropriety: Property Law and Postcolonial Style is out from Fordham on 7/1/25.

I analyze property law expansively, across Nigeria, India, South Africa, and the English Atlantic, to argue that both legal and literary innovations are undoing law's colonial legacies.

Huge thanks to @lgilmore.bsky.social for recommending me to the editors; to @cassiusa.bsky.social for giving such encouraging feedback to an early draft; and to everyone that's been so loving and supportive of my transition these past few years. (Heads up: the essay talks about sexual violence)

"Gateless Gates in Trans Memoir" "Gateless Gates in Trans Memoir"

I wrote this piece 2 years ago, much closer to the start of my transition, when my struggle for self-acceptance was more raw. I'm in a different place now, but writing this essay was an important step in getting here. Excited to share it just in time for Pride! πŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆ πŸ³οΈβ€βš§οΈ www.academia.edu/129873399/_G...

See SUNY University Faculty Senate Resolution 198-05-1 from last fall, which quotes a @rockefellerinst.bsky.social study showing a return of $8.67 on the dollar for SUNY in 2020-2021 and a $31B economic impact.

say it again:

4 million people work in higher ed, the largest employer in 10 states, second largest employer in 10 more, and in 60 of the 100 biggest cities

ROI for NIH and NSF for local economies is conservatively 4x, often close to 10x

demolishing higher education is economic sabotage

"His son spent days crying...and has now stopped speaking."

This is our Georgetown colleague, whose office is down the hall from where I teach. The mind can't assimilate how the University has mounted no public response; I had thought the usual institutional cowardice might have some moral limit

APRIL 4
4:15 PM
ROOM C415A

Unsettling Queer Anthropology is the first volume to critically access both the brilliance of anthropological approaches to queer and trans life and the ways queer critique can reorient and transform anthropology.
Editor Margot Weiss along with contributor Jafari S.
Allen will discuss the book and what decolonial, abolitionist, Black feminist, transnational, postcolonial, Indigenous, and queer of color approaches offer to anthropology today.

Margot Weiss is Associate Professor of American Studies and Anthropology at Wesleyan, where she coordinates Queer Studies.

Jafari Sinclaire Allen is Professor of African American and African Diaspora Studies (AAADS) at Columbia University.
