Topic: Critical disability studies offers theories and praxis drawn from disability justice, necessary for living in these pandemic "crip times" (McRuer 2018) of intensified immobilities and exacerbated socioeconomic inequalities. This graduate seminar will center scholarship about the present moment and recent past in critical disability studies that analyzes ableism in relationship to racism, settler colonialism, heteropatriarchy, capitalism, militarization, and empire. We will explore topics such as normativity, debility, disposability, access, chronicity, futurity, illness, madness, toxicity, immunity, violence, and cure.

Topic: Feminist Anthropology: Reproductive Labor and Care From reproductive labor broadly defined to the care and nurturing of humans, societies, and environments that human existence requires, care is at the center of the human experience. Drawing primarily on feminist and queer scholarship and thinking through care-ful ethnographic approaches, this seminar will explore reproductive labor and care, as well as the politics of these phenomena, in a range of contexts, including wildlife rehabilitation, multi-species relations, the beginnings and ends of life, the laboratory, and the clinic. In so doing, the seminar also will examine the role of the state in forms and boundaries of care.
