• OUR STUDIES SHOW Session 7

    (Brooklyn NY, register for address, max 15 participants)

    Lead by SPCUNY Faculty Fellow Esther Neff, OUR STUDIES SHOW stages collective philosophy as a form of theatre. Spring 2025 sessions will involve "theoretical dramaturgies" (scores for thinking and theorizing together) which re-phrase, re-frame, and re-iterate such inquiries, particularly in relation to "biological" vs. "cultural" senses of sex and gender, de-alienation and "settler surrender," and the role of doxastic logics (belief systems) in collective self-recognition. All welcome; registration required.
