The Sound Justice Lab is organizing a series of lunch discussions around ongoing projects, including:

  • Book Banning in Virginia & Beyond - January 30, 2023

    • Over the past two years, there have been hundreds of initiatives across the U.S. to ban books and prevent children from accessing the stories of marginalized and underrepresented voices. What is the landscape in Virginia? Where do book bans fit into the larger dynamics of cancel culture, from the left and the right? What can and should universities be doing to address this issue?

  • Reflecting on the Aesthetics of Undocumentedness with Federico Cuatlacuatl - February 27, 2023

  • Demystifying Dobbs - March 27, 2023

  • Performance Theory and Sound Studies through a Black Feminist and Queer lens with Ashon Crawley - April 24, 2023

The Sound Justice Lab is grateful to the Center for Global Inquiry & Innovation at UVA for sponsoring this lunch series.
