Beyond Homophobia: Centering LGBT Experiences in the Caribbean

Event Date: 
Jan 26 2017 - 9:00am - Jan 28 2017 - 4:00pm

The Department of Sociology, Psychology and Social Work, the Institute of Caribbean Studies and JFLAG  are pleased to provide an opportunity for scholars, human rights defenders and artists to explore LGBT navigations of Caribbean space(s). Presenters will explore the ways in which Caribbean sexualities, gender identities and queer practices are expressed and experienced beyond stereotypes, assumptions and limitations presented by heterosexual and binary gender norms. The conference is envisioned as a forum for the sharing and celebration of research, establishment of collaborative relationships, and encouragement of further investigations - across the Caribbean language divide.
