EWP 360Queer Ecologies3
From gay penguins to trans clownfish, nature is undeniably queer. By centering LGBTQIA2S+ perspectives, queer ecology challenges Western assumptions about “natural” sex and gender conformity that are imposed upon human and nonhuman communities. In this course, we will study how queer ecological frameworks disrupt rigid binaries and intersect with anti-colonial, anti-racist, and anti-ableist approaches to celebrate the fluidity and wild interdependencies of our world. Through the study of fiction, film, poetry, creative nonfiction, performance art, and zines, students will practice queer critical interpretation, develop queer writing of their own, and produce a collaborative multimodal project for public audiences.
