Desirability Politics: APALSA Community Discussion

Wednesday, March 11, 2026 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm

Against a white background, the words "APALSA Community Discussion Series" across the top in serif font, over "DESIRABILITY POLITICS" in large sans serif font (all in black, except for the letter "Y", which is set against a black background). Running down the right side of the image, there is a cropped rectangle from a painting, black/dark gray across the top and colored in swathes of brown, beige, pink over the bottom half. The bottom half of the left side of the graphic shows another cropped rectangle from the same painting with an eye, part of a nose, and more pink/brown/beige shades. The date, time, and location information; RSVP link (under "RSVP required:" in red text); QR code linking to the RSVP form; and the names of the two readings take up the center of the image. At the bottom, the APALSA and Henderson Center for Social Justice logos, with a serif-type ampersand between both logos.

Interested in chatting about social justice, community, and identity? Join us for part four of APALSA’s new Community Discussion series! In March, we’ll read and discuss:

  • “In the Name of Beauty” from Thick: And Other Essays by Tressie McMillan Cottom
  • Excerpts from “Coda: The Politics of Desire” from The Right to Sex: Feminism in the Twenty-First Century by Amia Srinivasan

Lunch provided! Attendance for this event is capped at 12 people, so please RSVP here to reserve a spot.
