The group presumes that racialization and sexuality have been central to the production of modern subjects and that an understanding of contemporary structures of power and embodiment depends upon research that considers the racialization of desire and the sexualization of race. The cluster is fundamentally concerned with questions of thinking and doing gender otherwise. We work through concepts of gender, sexuality, and race as mutually dependent and defining. \u00a0Some of the cluster\u2019s interests include: transgender studies, feminisms, the history of sexuality, the history of medicine, biopolitics, queer theory, the black radical tradition, and affect studies.<\/p>\n<p>The project draws on a significant constellation of faculty and graduate students at USC who are conducting innovative research on queer and transgender studies that intersects with research on racialization. This interdisciplinary network seeks to harness and combine these strengths and build a collaborative program of research and study.<\/p>\n<p>The cluster is a graduate student generated project that provides a space for cluster members to workshop their work with one another.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n  <\/div><\/div>\n\n\n  \n    \n\n\n\n\n\n\n<div\n  class=\"cc--component-container cc--spacer \"\n\n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  >\n  <div class=\"c--component c--spacer\"\n    \n      >\n\n    \n\n  <\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n\n  \n    \n\n\n\n\n\n\n<div\n  class=\"cc--component-container cc--rich-text \"\n\n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  >\n  <div class=\"c--component c--rich-text\"\n    \n      >\n\n    \n      \n<div class=\"f--field f--wysiwyg\">\n\n    \n  <h2 class=\"article-title\">Past Workshops and Events<\/h2>\n<h3 class=\"article-title\">2021-2022<\/h3>\n<div class=\"html-content\">\n<ul>\n<li>November 18, 2021 &#8211; Shayda Kafai,\u00a0Assistant Professor of Gender and Sexuality Studies at California State Polytechnic University, Pomona, &#8220;Crip Kinship: The Disability Justice and Art Activism of Sins Invalid.&#8221;<\/li>\n<li>Co-sponsors for February 11, 2022 &#8211; Francisco Galarte,\u00a0Assistant Professor of American Studies and Women, Gender and Sexuality Studies at the University of New Mexico,\u00a0&#8220;The Wound Makes the Man.&#8221;<\/li>\n<li>April 26, 2022 &#8211; Natalie Lira,\u00a0Assistant Professor of Latina\/Latino Studies at the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign, &#8220;State Care: Sterilization and Confinement in California during the Eugenics Era.&#8221;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>2020 &#8211; 2021<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dornsife.usc.edu\/ase\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/68\/2023\/01\/Spring_2021_RAGES_events.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/dornsife.usc.edu\/assets\/sites\/177\/imgs\/Spring_2021_RAGES_events.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"750\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><strong>2019-20\u00a0\u00a0 Events<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>September 25, 2019<\/p>\n<p><strong>Jorge<\/strong><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><strong>Leal<\/strong>,\u00a0USC Postdoc in ASE and History,\u00a0&#8220;The Post-Doc is In: A conversation between early career and in-training scholars about research, writing, teaching, and public scholarship\u201d<\/p>\n<p>October 10, 2019<\/p>\n<p><strong>Gayatri Gopinath<\/strong>, NYU\u00a0Professor; Director of Gender &amp; Sexuality Studies; Director of the Center for the Study of Gender &amp; Sexuality,\u00a0&#8220;Unruly Visions: The Queer Regional Imaginaries of Sunil Gupta and Agha Shahid Ali&#8221; \u00a0ASE Commons event<\/p>\n<p>October 11, 2019<\/p>\n<p><strong>Gayatri Gopinath<\/strong>\u00a0&#8212; Graduate student workshop on visual and curatorial methodology<\/p>\n<p>November 15, 2019<\/p>\n<p><strong>Andrea Long Chu<\/strong>, doctoral candidate in Comp.
