On Thursday, March 31 at 3:30, please join former UWP instructor Alexandra Lossada, recipient of a Gender and Racial Justice research award, who will present her work as part of a panel on Gender, Race, Citizenship and Public Policy. Alexandra\u2019s presentation is titled \u201cThe Interpreter of Crimmigration and Detention,\u201d and she will be joined by Stephanie Saxton (political science), who has done research on public funding of the Baltimore City Police that will be digitally published, and Jason Gray (film & media studies), who has created a 360-degree interactive immersive experience exploring voting rights through the perspective of people of color.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This project examines modes of resistance by bi- or multilingual ad hoc interpreters, often women and children, who appear within a new genre, the \u201ccrimmigration genre\u201d\u2014or works of literature that critique the criminalization of immigration law and where the detention center looms large. The proposal of this genre allows for different ethnic women writers with connections to Mexico, Central America, Haiti, and Japan to converse with each other as they trace intersectional histories of detention in the United States.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
