You are invited to see Parajanov's award-winning Ukranian film, deemed "a timeless Carpathian story," about a young man who falls in love with the daughter of his father's killer among the Hutsul people of Ukraine.
A cultural theorist who analyzes representations of race and gender throughout history, Snorton is the author of two widely acclaimed books, Black on Both Sides: A Racial History of Trans Identity (University of Minnesota 2017), and Nobody Is Supposed to Know: Black Sexuality on the Down Low (University of Minnesota Press 2014).
Snorton’s lecture will draw on his new book-length manuscript, tentatively entitled Mud: Ecologies of Racial Meaning. “In juxtaposing the narratives of Harriet Jacobs and Wu Ching Pong, he interrogates the procedures of fugitivity, defined here as the pursuit of ‘freedom from,’ without making recourse to the logic of periodization,” says James Ford, associate professor of English.
The event will consist of a catered dinner, open mic night, trivia game, and a screening of Anabel Gullo's "The City and the Sea" documentary screening. This is an opportunity to bring together students, faculty, and staff to close out UN Week 2020.
