不良研究所 Queer History Month Keynote Address: Diversifying Entomology
Join us for our featured 2021 Queer History Month (QHM) keynote talk--Diversifying Entomology--presented by Dr. Jessica L. Ware, an entomologist and curator at the AMNH in NYC. Her work focuses on dragonflies, damselflies, cockroaches, and termites, with a few other insects thrown in for good measure. Entomology is a vibrant, vital, exciting, international science, but the history of the discipline is complicated, and deeply rooted in colonialism.聽

Queer History Month is taking place throughout the entire month of October under the theme "Coming Together", which recognizes that the pandemic has been tough on everyone, especially for 2SLGBTQIA+ communities where shared spaces have always been a source of strength, resilience, and affirmation. As places start to open-up, this year's QHM offers a renewed opportunity to come together as we begin to move past all the changes we've lived through as of late. In addition to the keynote, other events include "Return of the Rainbow", a "Chat with an Elder" session, a zine-making workshop, a trans and nonbinary in academia panel, and an open mic night with performances by Op茅ra Queens. QHM is also on Facebook and Instagram.
