Liz Montegary takes a closer look at how anxieties over “gender ideology” – which have been fueling rightwing movements in Europe and Latin America for almost a decade – are now gaining traction in the United States and informing conservative attacks on queer and feminist studies, colleges and universities more broadly, and the entire institution of public education.

Speaker: Liz Montegary, Associate Professor, Graduate Program Director.

Dr. Montegary is Associate Professor of Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies at Stony Brook University. She is the author of Familiar Perversions: The Racial, Sexual, and Economic Politics of LGBT Families and co-editor of Mobile Desires: The Politics and Erotics of Mobility Justice.
