Delivering my closing remarks for the Feminist Activism Awardee Talk for Sociologists for Women in Society
A public reading at a Chicago independent bookstore
If you are interested in inviting me to speak about intersex or my cultural memoir in progress, FIVE STAR WHITE TRASH, on your campus, at your bookstore, or your medical center or the like, please contact me via any of the methods below.
As an intersex scholar-activist who has an intersex trait and who also studies intersex, I can speak about my first book Contesting Intersex: The Dubious Diagnosis and/or my personal intersex experience.
Or, as a seventh grade dropout who is now an Associate Professor of Sociology, I can draw from my in progress cultural memoir, FIVE STAR WHITE TRASH, and speak to the role of whiteness in intergenerational mobility, medical trauma, and familial relationships.
