Please join us on Thursday, March 30, from 6:30-7:45 pm, in person or on Zoom, for the public lecture by this year's Gerszten Family Visiting Professor, Marcia Ochoa. A leading scholar in Latin American/Latinx Studies, queer/feminist/trans studies, and media studies, Professor Ochoa's research on beauty pagents in Venezuela has radically changed the way we think about beauty, race, gender, and performance.

A reception will precede the talk from 5:00-6:30 pm in the lobby of Wilson. All are welcome to attend!

There will also be a seminar open to all graduate students in Wilson 142 from 3:30-5 pm.

This year's Gerszten lecture is being held in collaboration with the Institute of the Humanities and Global Cultures, thanks to the work of professors David Getsy (Art) and Cole Rizki (Spanish, Italian, and Portuguese). Registration links are available here.
