CESR Fall Speaker Series: 
Professor madison moore

When: November 11, 2024; lunch at 11:30 a.m.; lecture 12:00-1:30 p.m. 
Where: 4303 Posvar Hall (CUE Commons Room)

We are proud to welcome Professor madison moore (madison/any pronouns):
  • PhD, artist-scholar, DJ and Assistant Professor of Modern Culture and Media at Brown University
  • Interests/Research: the aesthetic, sonic and spatial strategies queer and trans people of color use to both survive and thrive in the five alarm fire of everyday life
  • Lecture: NIGHT FEVER
    • Queer dance floors have long thrived at the edges of imagination, a place to invent new ways of gathering, a place to imagine other ways of bending space and time, a way to exist at the borders and edges of feeling. Broken into ten fragments, or samples, this talk underscores queer nightlife as a site of imagination and as a method of living in and through the violence and five-alarm fire of Black queer life. 
CESR thanks Dr. David Tenorio Gonzalez for their assistance with this Speaker Series and dedication to excellence. 

This speaker series is aligned with CESR's mission to advance innovative and collaborative ethnic studies research. This Speaker Series seeks to foster cross-disciplinary dialogues with experts and scholars in Chicana/o Latinx Studies, Asian American and Pacific Islander Studies, Native American Studies, African American and Afrodiasporic Studies. These speakers range from established to emerging scholars, and were selected to reflect the diversity that is critical to Ethnic Studies.
