The Center for Applied Transgender Studies is proud to host its Fall 2022 Big Ideas panel. Events in this series feature a small panel of speakers discussing timely topics of mutual interest to scholars, practitioners, and policymakers working across a range of disciplines. These events are virtual, free to attend, and open to the public.



This panel, “Where Trans Activism and Abolition Meet,” will bring together three brilliant scholar-activists—Qui Alexander, Blu Buchanan, and SA Smythe—to discuss the relationship between trans rights and abolition activism. The panel will be moderated by Erique Zhang, Managing Director of the Center.



The panel will take place from 2:30 PM to 3:30 PM Central Standard Time.

We’ve launched a Center for Applied Transgender Studies. But what exactly is “applied transgender studies” and why do we need it? In this inaugural public event, the Center’s founders, TJ Billard, Avery Everhart, and Erique Zhang, issue an urgent call to action, laying out a vision for the Center itself, as well as for a new orientation within the field of transgender studies. Join us for an exciting conversation hosted by Paisley Currah.

The panel will take place from 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM Central Daylight Time.
