L&C Ethnic Studies welcomes David Roediger, radical American writer, historian, and Professor of American Studies and History at the University of Kansas. 

Please join us for a Gender Studies Symposium keynote presentation by distinguished scholar Susan Stryker, author of Transgender History, founding co-editor of TSQ: Transgender Studies Quarterly, and co-director of the award-winning documentary Screaming Queens: The Riot at Compton’s Cafeteria.

Dr. Stryker’s presentation is titled “Rage at the Crossroads of Turk and Taylor: On the Uses and Abuses of Transgender History for the Present.”


Description: The site of Compton’s Cafeteria Riot, where trans women and others banded together to revolt against police violence at an all-night eatery in San Francisco’s Tenderloin in 1966, was recently listed on the National Register of Historic Places—the first such site to be so listed because of its connection to trans social movement history. In this talk, historian Susan Stryker explores rage as a shared structure of feeling that informed that act of collective resistance at the corner of Turk and Taylor Streets in 1966, and discusses how that affect has—and hasn’t—been transmitted through acts of public memorialization.

L&C’s annual International Fair is a vibrant and enriching celebration that showcases the diverse cultural heritage of its student body. This day-long festival features a wide array of activities including cultural performances, international cuisine, educational booths, and interactive workshops.
