Session Description:

In this so-called postrace era, we engage recent controversies around the future of queer theory through the lenses of race, nation, class, and other identities. How might alternative and competing traditions of queer theory, including queer-of-color critiques and reengagements of queer theory, highlight the continued work that "queer" has to do?

Subject:

• General Literature – Literary Criticism and Theory
