(Scholar's Symposium, The University of Tampa, 2023-04-07) Dango, Michael
This talk by Dr. Michael Dango shows how art by contemporary women and queer people of color actively theorizes where sexual harm comes from and how to end it. Looking closely at these artworks provides lessons and insights sometimes forgotten or overlooked in the #MeToo era.
