Last week in Lisbon, I presented two papers: our queer Central Asian art book project with Mohira Suyarkulova & Russian queer migration to Central Asia with Polina Kislitsyna. It was a privilege to join the panel on queer cultures with the wonderful Saltanat Shoshanova & Georgy Mamedov
This is an invitation to sit with stories that donโt often get told.
Join me on 21 Oct for an online seminar:
Learning not to Breathe the Poison: Decolonial Queer Approaches to Research in Central Asia
