Announcing Study & Struggle at UW Bothell. Open to all UW students, faculty, and staff. Please register below to receive the Zoom invite for the event.

Study & Struggle brings together thinkers who address key sites of study and struggle related to race, gender, and labor in the context of racial capitalism, settler colonialism, and the climate and other crises they have generated. The hybrid events take place during two UWB classes, and they are intended primarily for undergraduates, but they are open to all UW students, faculty, and staff online. 

In linking “study” and “struggle,” the series takes inspiration from Robin D.G. Kelley, Leigh Patel, Stefano Harney and Fred Moten, and from the Study and Struggle collective. The series is hosted by the UW Bothell Labor Studies Colloquium and sponsored by the Harry Bridges Center for Labor Studies and the School of Interdisciplinary Arts & Sciences. 

Series events will take place from 3:45 PM to 5:30 PM PST on the following dates: 

Dean Spade, Thursday, Jan. 22

Leigh Patel – Thursday, Jan. 29

Nick Mitchell – Thursday, Feb. 5 

Julie Sze, Thursday, Feb. 12

Shannon Cram and Melanie Malone, Thursday, Feb. 26

Yasser Munif and Maryam Griffin, Thursday, March 5

The culminating event of Study & Struggle at UW Bothell on Thursday, April 30 (TBD) will feature Keaanga-Yamahtta Taylor as part of her visit to UW for the Danz Lecture presented by the Office of Public Lectures and Seattle Town Hall.
