THE OFFICE OF RESEARCH AND
GRADUATE PROGRAMS AND OVPR are hosting Ethics in Research with Marginalized
Communities on Wednesday, March 7 from 1:00 PM – 2:15 PM in Smith Hall Room
121. Join Professors Aren Aizura, Kate Derickson, Sima Shakhsari, and Terrion
Williamson and post-doctoral associate Jessica Lopez Lyman as they lead a
conversation about questions that arise through their work with transgender,
queer, disabled, Latina/o/x, African American, and Muslim communities, victims
of violent crime, and other marginalized groups. How do scholars engage with
communities as more than mere objects of research? How do they avoid
reproducing colonialist power dynamics? These and other questions will be
discussed. For more information, contact Alexandra Brown, akbrown@umn.edu. Please RSVP here.
