Black Sexuality in the Archive:
A Public Conversation with Jennifer Morgan, Steven Fulwood, and Julin Everett

Jennifer Morgan, a distinguished historian of enslaved women’s history, Julin Everett, an innovative scholar of queer sexualities in the African Diaspora, and Steven Fulwood, a nationally prominent archivist committed to collecting the materials of the black LGBTQ communities, will come together to discuss which archives are available for individuals interested in researching sexuality in the African Diaspora and how we might use “traditional” archives to talk about matters related to gender and sexuality in new and innovative ways.

More details will appear on the WGS website and in our newsletter.

These events are co-sponsored by the Committee on Degrees in Studies of Women, Gender, and Sexuality, the Office of BGLTQ Student Life, and the Harvard Library system, with generous support from the Division of Social Sciences and the Regan Fund.
