BIOMES: The Atlantic Opportunity presented by Dr. Jonathan Howard

About the Seminar:
This talk interrogates the environmental implications of Europe and Africa’s transatlantic crossings, through the lens of Thoreau’s musings on the former in his essay “Walking.” Broadly, I will argue that these crossings give rise to two radically diverging interfaces with the planet: whiteness’ stand your ground subjectivity and blackness’ ongoing inhabitation of the deep.

Trans Dudes with Lady Cancer: Film screening and community conversation with filmmakers Yee Won Chong and Brooks Nelson

What are the chances that two transmasculine people living under the same roof would be diagnosed with “lady cancer” in the same month—one with breast cancer and the other with ovarian cancer?

Join filmmakers Yee Won Chong and Brooks Nelson for a public screening of Trans Dudes with Lady Cancer, followed by a panel discussion. This courageous short film documents the personal journey of the filmmakers, their family, and their community as they navigate a medical system that is scrambling to figure out how to provide affirming care for transgender people.
