4th Annual QScholars Undergraduate Research Symposium
“Paint Yourself Whole: Navigating Intersectionality in a Divided World”
Friday, May 5th, 2017, Kerchoff Grand Salon
This year’s theme will explore the various intersectionalities within the LGBTQ(+) identity spectrum and how we navigate and embrace these multiple aspects of our identity in a divided world. We are seeking papers from undergraduate students that explore what it means to possess a LGBTQ(+) identity in dialogue (or conflict) with one’s religion, sex, gender, race, ethnicity, socioeconomic class, ability, legel status, and place of origin. FREE Breakfast, lunch, and after-event reception when you sign up at the event!

Co-organized by LGBTQ Studies Program Chair and Chicana/o Studies, English, and Gender Studies Professor Alicia Gaspar de Alba and Chicana/o Studies/Art History Professor Charlene Villaseñor-Black, the symposium will simultaneously explore the intersection of love, art, and identity politics in the work of queer Chicanx artists, writers, performers, and art historians, and celebrate the legacy of Dr. Tomás Ybarra-Frausto in the development of the field of Chicano/Chicana Art History.
The symposium is also the first in a series of year-long events celebrating the 20th anniversary of the LGBTQ Studies Program at UCLA, which opened its doors as an undergraduate minor in Fall 1997, under the leadership of Professor Emeritus, Jim Schultz.
