November 20th, 2024 - OUT NOW - Queering Professionalism: Pitfalls and Possibilities

It was such an honor to work with Dr. Ben Anderson-Nathe on contributing our chapter Professor Drag: Queerness and Mess in the Neoliberal University to Queering Professionalism: Pitfalls and Possibilities. Edited by Adam Davies and Cameron Greensmith.

As described by University of Toronto Press, the book focuses on “neoliberalism and its intersection with systems of oppression, inequalities, and the regulation of queer knowledge and subjectivities [and] provides a distinct contribution to the emerging literature on the regulation and professionalization of 2SLGBTQIA+ individuals and others marginalized by cisheteronormativity within the ‘helping professions’ and social services.”
