The Gender & Women’s Studies Program is excited to announce this year’s speaker for our Gail Martin Lecture Series!
 
On Friday, March 1st, at 4:00 p.m., Dr. Kishonna Gray, Associate Professor of Writing, Rhetoric, & Digital Studies and Africana Studies at the University of Kentucky, will give a talk titled: “Augmenting Reality: Black Praxis in Digital Gaming.”

This presentation will explore Black praxis (practices, culture, creation, aesthetics, etc.) in gaming, situating it in other Black aesthetic traditions. By exploring Black haptics, Black sonics, and Black optics, Dr. Gray will demonstrate the impact that these Black digital practices have had on the larger landscape of gaming and streaming.
 
The event will be held in Cherry Hall 125. Everyone is welcome! 
 
This event is being co-sponsored by the Africana Studies Program and the Department of English.

Presentation with Dr. Pearlie Johnson, Independent Scholar and member, Kentucky Humanities Council’s Speakers Bureau. Based on historical records, secondary sources, and oral history interviews with quilters across Kentucky, Johnson discusses 19th century quilts made by black women living and working on slave plantations, traditional quilts made by African American women of the 20th century, as well as contemporary art quilts made by women of all cultural groups of the 21st century.

Her work explores women’s history, storytelling, identity politics, social activism, and empowerment. Her study of quilts in Kentucky is aimed at examining cross-cultural parallels in technique and assemblage, as well as revealing unique designs.

This program was funded in part by Kentucky Humanities.

FREE program and FREE admission to Museum.
