Lunch provided. Space limited to first 15 people. Please RSVP to CLLAS@uoregon.edu

Dr. Jafari Sinclaire Allen is the author of the critical ethnography, ¡Venceremos?: The Erotics of Black Self-Making in Cuba [Perverse Modernities series, Duke University Press, Fall 2011], and editor of Black/Queer/Diaspora, a special issue of GLQ: A Journal of Lesbian and Gay Studies. His current research project, tentatively entitled “Black Queer Here and There: Movement and Sociality,” traces cultural and political circuits of transnational queer desire—in travel, tourism, (im)migration, art and activism.

He will also give a talk on “Black/Queer Here & There: Ethnography of An Idea” in the EMU Gumwood Room at 5 p.m. March 11, 2015.
