What I Am Thinking About Now: Professor Matthew Guterl (American Studies, Africana Studies)
In the midst of the Cold War, Josephine Baker was not your typical radical. She lived in a castle. She wore the best clothes. She operated a Disney-esque theme park. And she adopted a mixed race family. So what, Guterl has been asking, is so radical about that? And what does this story matter today?
What I Am Thinking About Now is an on-going informal workshop/seminar series to which faculty and graduate students are invited to present and discuss recently published work and work in progress.
