Gender/Queer/Trans Studies Funding Opportunities for Early Career Scholars

Deadline:

May 1

Length/Track:

One year

Description:

“
The theme “Backlash, (Im)mobility, Reaction” captures the world in flux, the world overcome by turbulence, with opposite forces clashing, breaking, turning over. The Fisher Center for the Study of Gender and Justice invites applicants to address the following question: what does it mean to think, to write, to act, and to create art in such a world? Do we succumb to the forces of the moment (such as reactionary forces)? Do we react to them, mutiny, redirect, and fight back? How do scientists, artists, thinkers, and activists survive backlash—perhaps even turning this dynamic against itself? What makes people move and react, during reactionary times that hinder people’s mobility?” “The fellow will teach one course per semester related to their research and the Fisher Center’s annual theme. The successful candidate will offer the other two courses in one or more of the following areas: Africana Studies, Asian Studies, Judaic Studies, Public Health, or Gender, Sexuality, and Intersectional Justice.”
