Mark your calendars and plan ahead to attend our 26th Andrea Carson Coley Lecture. This event was originally scheduled for April 2020, but was postponed due to COVID-19 and will now take place on Friday, October 23, 2020 at 12:30pm via Zoom.

"How Dare You": Rage and Resistance in an Age of Catastrophe will be presented by Dr. Ann Pellegrini, Professor of Performance Studies & Social and Cultural Analysis at New York University.

Dr. Pellegrini's books include: Performance Anxieties: Staging Psychoanalysis, Staging Race; Love the Sin: Sexual Regulation and the Limits of Religious Tolerance (co-authored with Janet R. Jakobsen); Secularisms (co-edited with Jakobsen); and “You Can Tell Just By Looking” and 20 Other Myths about LGBT Life and People (co-authored with Michael Bronski and Michael Amico). "You Can Tell Just By Looking” was a finalist for a Lambda Literary Award for Best LGBT Non-Fiction, in 2014. Pellegrini co-edits the “Sexual Cultures” book series at New York University Press (with Joshua Chambers-Letson and Tavia Nyong’o), and is a candidate in adult psychoanalysis at the Institute for Psychoanalytic Training and Research (IPTAR), in New York City.
