SUMMARY:Reproductive Writes
DESCRIPTION:Join members of the C21 Reproductive Justice Collaboratory as we connect writing with reproductive freedoms. \nLearn more about the (1) history of reproductive justice; (2) how it impacts students today; and (3) explore how writing can be a tool to process reproductive experiences and act against reproductive injustices. This will be a generative session for undergraduates to consider how reproductive justice and creative practices (like writing) can aid in efforts to heal individual traumas and become a means of advocacy and political awareness. \nWe are offering two 75-minute workshop slots to increase participation! Join us for either Session #1 1:30-2:45pm or Session #2 3:30-4:45pm. Taking place in Case Commons at the UWM Student Union.

SUMMARY:The Tragedy of Heterosexuality in Global Context: A Lecture by Jane Ward
DESCRIPTION:As part of the Women’s & Gender Studies Feminist Lecture Series\, Jane Ward\, Professor of Feminist Studies at UC Santa Barbara\, critiques one of the basic premises of the mainstream LGBT rights movement—that heterosexuality is easier than queerness—by asking for whom\, and under what conditions\, is straightness easier.  \nDrawing from ethnographic field work\, archival research\, and cultural studies methods\, Ward examines the 20th century emergence of a “heterosexual repair industry” — a self-help empire designed to romanticize and ease heterosexual misery while eliding attention to heteropatriarchy and the queer\, feminist interventions poised to undo it. In this talk\, Ward takes her analysis in new directions\, pointing to the global implications of heterosexual misery by analyzing the global “anti-gender” (or “gender critical”) movement and the collective anxiety about gender and sexuality that animates it. Ward conceptualizes “gender critical” projects as expressions of heteroparanoia and psychic dissonance aimed at reconciling the paradoxes of modern heterosexuality\, and offers a feminist assessment of these projects’ trajectories.

SUMMARY:Global Studies seminar: Making a Splash: Women Cartoonists in France
DESCRIPTION:In her talk “Making a Splash: Women Cartoonists in France\,” Dr. Cynthia Laborde will focus on the impact of women cartoonists/graphic novelists in France in the 21st century. She will trace how this new generation has been making their own rules and claiming their space in a traditionally male-dominated industry. Her analysis will focus on the socially and politically engaged aspects of their work\, concentrating especially on how they approach issues related to women. She will demonstrate that comics as a medium are able to articulate and disseminate feminist perspectives in new ways\, and that artists (such as Pénélope Bagieu and Emma\, among others) are having a real-life impact\, as the lines become more and more blurred between the individual and the artist via social media. \nCynthia Laborde is an assistant professor of modern languages at the University of Texas at Arlington. She holds a PhD from the University of Iowa (2015) and an MA in language\, literature and translation from UWM (2010). \nThis event is partially funded by the U.S. Department of Education Title VI NRC Grant. \nThis event will be followed later in the day by the opening film of the 26th annual UWM Festival of Films in French\, February 17-26\, 2023. Please join us there as well! \nWhile at UWM\, Dr. Laborde will also present a French immersion workshop\, “Enseigner (avec) les bandes dessinées en français/Teaching (with) graphic novels and comic in French\,” on Saturday\, February 18\, 1:00-4:00 pm. Free but registration is required. See that event on the calendar for more details.
