"Touring the Abyss: Unwellness in the University" with Mimi Khúc

September 14 from 5:00-7:00 PM

PAHB 216

What do we need in these times of unwellness? What kinds of care can we imagine and build for ourselves if we engage our unwellness in new ways?

Mimi Khúc, PhD, is a writer, scholar, and teacher of things unwell. She is the Co-Editor of The Asian American Literary Review and an adjunct professor in Asian American studies and disability studies. Her work includes Open in Emergency, the Asian American Tarot, and dear elia: letters from the Asian American Abyss, a deep dive into unwellness at the intersection of ableism, model minoritization, and the university. She loves cats more than you can probably imagine.

Masks will be required and provided.

This event is a part of Mimi Khúc's mini-residency with the Critical Disability Studies Minor.

Co-sponsored by the Dresher Center for the Humanities.

This event is open for full participation by all individuals regardless of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, or any other protected category under applicable federal law, state law, and the University's nondiscrimination policy.
