Queer Geographies: Spatialising Sexuality and Gender

Spatialising Sexuality and Gender: Queer and Trans Geographies¿ provides an opportunity for students to critically, and self-reflexively, consider how sexuality and gender inform, and unfold in, the everyday spaces we inhabit. The course content provides an intersectional introduction to studying sexuality and gender through the perspectives from queer and trans geographies, emphasising intersections with critical race, Indigenous, and post-colonial geographies in order to gain perspectives on the ways queer and trans geographies are inextricably linked to race, class, colonialism, and geopolitical contexts. This course is aimed for students interested in engaging with critical human geography, specifically the cultural and political significance of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, Two-Spirit, and more (LGBTQ2+) identities and lives in the contribution of geographical understandings and knowledge production.
