Virtual: Legislating Gender and Sexuality in Africa

The Institute for the Arts and Humanities will be hosting IAH Zoom Talks, a virtual talk series featuring discussions during the COVID-19 crisis. Talks will either be focused on a particular scholar and topic relevant to the many unprecedented issues related to COVID-19, or it will highlight new works spurred by or created during the pandemic. This week’s talk will be given by Lydia Boyd, associate professor of African, African American, and diaspora studies, and Emily Burrill, associate professor of history and women’s and gender studies and director of the African Studies Center, who will discuss their new work, Legislating Gender and Sexuality in Africa.
