Jamele Watkins (German Studies, University of Minnesota Twin Cities) studies race and gender in Germany in the 20th and 21st Century. Her current book project, Roses for Angela, examines East German transnational solidarity with Angela Davis.
This is part of the colloquium lecture series on Transcultural Approaches to Europe: Specters of Sexual Liberation. This colloquium series advances crucial conversations on world language and literature study on the UW Seattle campus through an interdisciplinary, multi-departmental speaker series focused on issues of race, identity, colonialism, and migration within a broad European context. These trans- or postnational, transcultural, and multilingual approaches to national literatures offer effective frameworks for undergraduates, graduate students, and faculty to grasp the intersectional complexity of power configurations in literary and visual cultures.
