NYU Department of Media, Culture, and Communication presents:
Trans Lineages Symposium

 

Friday, March 3, 2023

2-7 PM ET

 

 

The Trans Lineages Symposium is a one-day event centering the trans thinkers who came before us and the trans lineages we extend through our own work, activism, and research. In this symposium we honor and turn back to those who made our work possible, focusing on the importance and necessity of honoring transgender histories, genealogies, and lineages in contemporary work in transgender studies.
