Join us for the Brown Bag Talk: 鈥渟drawkcaB/Sideways/Onwards: Writing a Return to Borderless Futures鈥 with Angie Cruz-Guzm谩n, Biography Prize Winner

Cosponsors: Peacebuilding LLC, the Center for Oral History, the School of Communication and Information, and the Departments of Anthropology, American Studies, Ethnic Studies, English, and Women, Gender, & Sexuality Studies

What does it mean when our understandings of 鈥楤order鈥 and 鈥楥itizen鈥 continuously shift? These terms have guided United States politics for decades, their instability reliant on their performance upholding the empire. How does the page function as a border? What can writers and artists offer to dismantle imperial tools everywhere? In sharing my experiences creating my project, this presentation explores anti-border and anti-deportation work through hybrid literary forms.
