Research interests
My scholarly interests include the politics of representation; collective memory; emotion and affect; archives; and sexualities. My doctoral research focuses on queer political activism in the Canadian context. In particular, I am interested in The Body Politic, a Toronto-based gay liberation magazine published by Pink Triangle Press from 1971-1987.
