About this event

This lecture is a continuation of the WGSS series on “Teaching Gender, Race, and Feminism in Troubled Times.” Dr. Aiesha Turman holds an Interdisciplinary PhD with a major in Humanities and Culture with certificates in Creative Writing and Women’s and Gender Studies from The Union Institute & University in Cincinnati, OH. Her dissertation, There’s Always Been an Afrofuture: Black Women’s Literature as Technology of Protest, explores the Black feminist literary genealogy of Afrofuturism and is part of her broader interests in Black pasts as the key to Black Futures.
