Colloquium with Kai Pyle
November 29, 2022, 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm EST
Join us in the OI Conference room, Swem Library, campus of William & Mary, for a discussion of “Two-Spirit Love and War as Indigenous Diplomacy: Ozaawindib in the Red River Valley, ca. 1800.”
Kai Pyle holds a PhD in American Studies from the University of Minnesota – Twin Cities. Their current project draws on methods from linguistics, history, literary studies, and visual studies to examine the ways that queer, trans, and Two-Spirit Anishinaabe people have memorialized their history through the maintenance of kinship relations across time and space.
The OI holds between three and six colloquia per semester to discuss projects (usually a postdoctoral book chapter or article) in progress. The paper is pre-circulated and available by request. Although only postdoctoral work is presented, graduate students at all levels are warmly encouraged to attend the sessions and participate in the discussions.
To receive copies of the pre-circulated papers you must register in advance. All colloq participants are expected to have read the paper before the discussion and are asked to refrain from sharing the papers with others. We thank you for your observance of this request.
