Jessy Lanza is a Juno and Polaris Prize nominated musician, producer and DJ from Hamilton, Canada. She has released four studio albums on London's legendary Hyperdub label; Pull My Hair Back, Oh No, All the Time and Love Hallucination. If we’re in the midst of a dance music renaissance, Lanza is one of the form’s torchbearers. As she laces deeply sensual vocals over a dynamic tapestry of uptempo production styles, all frequencies are welcomed and cherished on the dance floor of this architect’s mind. In 2021 Jessy also contributed to the esteemed DJ Kicks mix series on !K7 Records.

The John Parke Young Initiative on the Global Political Economy welcomes Dr. Sergii Glebov for a talk on "Russia's War on Ukraine and European (In)Security."

Transgender legal expert, advocate, and poet Dee Farmer will give a talk about her multi-decade advocacy for the incarcerated trans community. Farmer was the first transgender plaintiff to bring a case before the U.S. Supreme Court. Farmer v. Brennan was heard by the United States Supreme Court in 1994 and the court ruled unanimously in favor of Farmer. This case was foundational to the Prison Rape Elimination Act of 2003.
