Drawing on Gloria Anzaldua’s borderlands framework, Chakira Haddock-Lazala, Ph.D. (CHA-Harvard Medical School), Jesus Barrios (Callen-Lorde Community Health Center + CUNY) and Tamara Oyola-Santiago (Student Health Services) will lead us in a discussion about borders from a psychological, public health and language justice perspective.

 

Some of the ideas we will explore:

How do we understand the concept of borderlands from our respective fields?
What is Latinx and how is Latinx a term at the borderland?
What do we gain/ lose from the term Latinx?
In what ways does this term bring us closer to understanding the subjective person?

All are welcome and refreshments will be served!

Questions? Contact Sophia Williams (wills209@newschool.edu)

 

Sponsored by the Social Justice Committee, Student Health Services, the DREAM Team, the Queer Collective, and the Zolberg Institute on Migration and Mobility.

 

November 4th, 12:30-2:00 pm
