[Re]Emergence: [Re]imagination, [Re]vision, and Revolution; The Spring 2022 GWGSS Conference

For the past year and a half, what once constituted the regularities and routines of our everyday lives were disrupted. A global pandemic that still rages on, changes of the political regime, ongoing antiblackness and fights for racial justice, debates about immigration produced by and reinforcing xenophobia, the immediate and irreversible threat of climate change, and ongoing threats to the safety and well-being of LGBTQ+ individuals are only some of the events that have punctuated the beginning of the 2020s. Rage, antipathy, indifferences, fear, helplessness are only some of the emotions that describe our everyday as divisions continue to grow stronger.
