Neurodiversity intersectional
relationships and coalitions
December 9th 2022, 4 to 7 pm CET (Berlin/Vienna)
Content:
Neurodiversity suddenly seems to be the hip diversity category. But how do we benefit as neurodivergent people, especially if we’re not white autistic cis men with IT jobs? This conversation brings together neurodivergent women, lesbian, nonbinary, trans and inter people to share questions such as: What spaces do we have to share our experiences? How do we bring our specific perspective to our work or activism? What relationships and coalitions are important to us, and what do we need to feel secure in them? How do we bring intersectional aspects into discourses on neurodiversity?

Gaga Feminism. Rethinking Queer Anarchy
an evening with Jack Halberstam (organized by the Institute for Queer Theory) January 27, 2013 at Silverfuture
Prize question: What do pregnant man Thomas Beatie, comic sponge Sponge Bob and pop star Lady Gaga have in common?
Whoever knows (k)one answer to this question wins participation in a conversation with Judith Jack Halberstam: The creator of "Gaga Feminism" sees the three aforementioned media figures all as harbingers of a change that will radically turn our ideas of kinship, gender and sexuality upside down. Judith Jack Halberstam and Jana Günther discuss how we can accelerate this change by becoming "gaga" ourselves and what all this has to do with queer anarchy.
How is sexuality deployed for political ends? … in official state politics, in the media, in activism? Do political struggles acknowledge intersections between homo- and transphobia, able-bodiedness, and racism? Is “subtle” racialization a euphemism, or does it allow us to point out particular forms of dis/articulating racism? The workshop explores in more depth the discussions initiated by the lecture series „“The Subtle Racialization of Sexuality“ through activating knowledge and experiences from activism and project work.
