SUMMARY:Francisco Galarte presents Brown Trans Figurations

Please use the following link to watch the event’s Zoom recording.  \nPlease join us when Professor Francisco J. Galarte\, Assistant Professor of American Studies and Women\, Gender and Sexuality Studies at the University of New Mexico\, discusses their latest book Brown Trans Figurations: Rethinking Race\, Gender\, and Sexuality in Chicanx/Latinx Studies. The event will include a presentation by Professor Galarte and a discussion led by Professor Maylei Blackwell. This event is open to all. \nJoin the event via Zoom: https://ucla.zoom.us/j/98970982935?pwd=UUM2SFRVaTUzR3BnQTVkVGx3cUJYZz09 \nMeeting ID: 989 7098 2935\nPasscode: 810371 \nWithin queer\, transgender\, and Latinx and Chicanx cultural politics\, brown transgender narratives are frequently silenced and erased. Brown trans subjects are treated as deceptive\, unnatural\, nonexistent\, or impossible\, their bodies\, lives\, and material circumstances represented through tropes and used as metaphors. Restoring personhood and agency to these subjects\, Francisco J. Galarte advances “brown trans figuration” as a theoretical framework to describe how transness and brownness coexist within the larger queer\, trans\, and Latinx historical experiences. \nBrown Trans Figurations presents a collection of representations that reveal the repression of brown trans narratives and make that repression visible and palpable. Galarte examines the violent deaths of two transgender Latinas and the corresponding narratives that emerged about their lives\, analyzes the invisibility of brown transmasculinity in Chicana feminist works\, and explores how issues such as transgender politics can be imagined as part of Chicanx and Latinx political movements. This book considers the contexts in which brown trans narratives appear\, how they circulate\, and how they are reproduced in politics\, sexual cultures\, and racialized economies.

Professor Alamillo will be introduced by Genevieve Carpio\, Assistant Professor of Chicana/o and Central American Studies at UCLA; Rudy Mondragón\, doctoral candidate in Chicana/o and Central American studies at UCLA\, will moderate the Q&A. \nAlamillo was the 2002-2003 Institute of American Cultures visiting scholar at the UCLA Chicano Studies Research Center\, where he first started researching sports history.
