My teaching, like my research, is committed to queer, black, feminist, decolonial, and transnational perspectives that center myriad voices. In this work, I am also deeply committed to challenging canonical approaches to teaching anthropology, queer studies, and other fields that have a tradition of centering only white and western scholarship. I rely on engaging theoretical and ethnographic readings as well as film and social media to help me teach students rigorous concepts and introduce them to ongoing intellectual debates.
