Who's Afraid of Gender

Join the Faculty Senate, the Center for the Education of Women+ (CEW+), and the Ford School's Center for Racial Justice for a book talk and panel discussion with philosopher, gender theorist, and Distinguished Professor in the Graduate School at the University of California, Berkeley, Judith Butler, about their latest book, Who's Afraid of Gender? 

Space is limited! 50 seats are reserved for members of the Ford School community. Please register to secure a spot. 

The book is a timely and necessary investigation into the weaponization of “gender” as a phantasm invoked by those calling “for the elimination of gender education, the censorship of texts concerned with gender, and the disenfranchisement or criminalization of transgender or genderqueer people.”

Accessibility
Captioning and ASL will be provided during the event. Presenters will use microphones.
