Queer Terror: Refusing Settler Empire and the 'Value of Life'

Time: Oct. 22, 2019, 3:30 p.m. - 5 p.m.

Location: 319 Sims Hall

Heike Schotten (University of Massachusetts-Boston)

Schotten’s lecture draws on her new book, Queer Terror: Life, Death, and Desire in the Settler Colony (Columbia UP, 2018) which mobilizes queer theory and critical indigenous theory to re-think biopolitics in Nietzschean service to challenging the hidden moralisms of “terrorism” discourse, Islamophobia, and US Empire.
