The Politics of Food and other things May 19, 2013
For years, I’ve thought about food. I’ve thought about the food that different cultures consume, the ways that culture motivates people to eat certain foods, the ways that we mass produce food here in the United States, and I’ve thought about my own (oftentimes poor) practices of food. During graduate school, I became vegetarian. I…Continue reading → […]

Categories of Resistance May 12, 2013
I’ve been thinking a lot about the tools, methods, and categories that have helped me resist hegemonic strategies, patriarchy, homophobia, and misogyny. All this thinking has also created questions in my mind. For example, I use feminist analysis and feminist tools, but am I a feminist? I utilize queer analysis and methodologies, but am I…Continue reading […]

Mourning & Loss: when intellectual giants become part of memory past May 10, 2013
Despite the news that broke yesterday concerning Dr. Otto Maduro’s passing, I begin this morning as I normally do: get up, take the dogs out, brush my teeth, shower, dress, and walk to the bus. What is different about this morning that impacts me tremendously is how my mind continued to think about both Ada…Continue reading → […]

Talking Taboo? I did! May 8, 2013
A year or so ago, I received an email from a writer. This letter came from a recommendation from Dr. Mary E. Hunt. I read the email and thought: ”what do I have to say about today’s church? I don’t even attend church!” And then it dawned on me…I had a whole life committed to…Continue reading → […]

When writing is part of daily habituation April 20, 2013
I was talking w/ a colleague last night and I shared with her that at some point in my academic career, I want to write about writing. The idea of writing is fascinating to me, and I want to spend some time thinking about writing, outcomes that emerge as a result of writing, and general…Continue reading → […]

“Race is not a Thing” April 17, 2013
I enjoyed coffee with a friend this past Sunday. It was the perfect company: a fellow writer, a nice coffee shop, and stellar conversation. What struck me was our conversation about race. I always enjoy talking about race, but am often concerned to venture down this path, especially when today’s racial politics and theories of…Continue reading → […]

The Quest of Publishing: Re-Imagining Text April 10, 2013
I’ve long been impressed with both academic presses & indie presses. In Chicago, I would spend hours in bookstores–mostly independent & feminist. As I’ve spent time in a doctoral program, I’ve even thought about doing some sort of online journal with close colleagues, & I’ve seen how the rise in online publishing & open source…Continue readin […]

Put a Ring on it! April 2, 2013
Today is my wedding anniversary. I married my long-time partner 7 years ago. We’ve been together 14 years–7 of those are the result of us marrying in Toronto, ON, Canada. I’ve been all over the place when it comes to whether or not to wear my very swanky ring. I’m now really thinking about wearing…Continue reading → […]

Politics and LGBTQ Lives March 13, 2013
On the heels of my 14th year anniversary, my partner and I decided to spend the morning together at the Colorado Capital. The final hearing/reading of the Civil Unions bill and formal vote was taking place. We thought it would be nice to be a part of history–a history that sheds light on families that…Continue reading → […]

This particular group which convened were all Hispanic Theological Initiative Scholars from around the country. We all are completing our dissertations or have just completed dissertations. Elizabeth Conde-Frazier and Eduard […]
