Invisible Lives, Targeted Bodies: The Impacts of Economic Injustice on LGBTQ Communities (New York, NY)
25 West 43rd Street
New York,NY 10036
USA
“Invisible Lives, Targeted Bodies” is a two-day conference put on by the Queer Survival Economies initiative at the Barnard Center for Research on Women, CUNY Murphy Institute, and RWDSU that will bring together organizers, scholars, activists, and community members from across the country to discuss overlooked and often invisible economic justice issues at the intersections of class, race, gender, immigration, non-traditional families, sexuality, and the law.
Panels and film screenings will focus on the intersections of the following issues: vulnerable communities, immigration, the state, and transnational flows of labor, the impacts of LGBTQ identity in low wage & precarious industries like retail, restaurants, or health care that offer long hours, low wages, and very few work protections, and the intersections of gender, sexuality, HIV status, drug risk (including hormone use) in an expansive vision of reproductive justice and health.
The “Invisible Lives, Targeted Bodies” conference is free and open to the public.
