Rethinking Borders: A panel on Transnational Movements, Resistance, Identity, and Gender
April 3, 2023
Dr. Lorena Fontaine, Dr. Shauna Labman, Dr. Rob Lorway, Dr. Shayna Plaut, Dr. Lori Wilkinson
In collaboration with Global College at the University of Winnipeg, our third critical conversation took place on Apr. 3, 2023 and featured Drs. Lorena Fontaine, Shauna Labman, Rob Lorway, Shayna Plaut, and Lori Wilkinson.
The conversation was wide-ranging and touched on a variety of topics. Panelists identified – based on their research and expertise – the borders that matter, how they matter, who made them and why, as well as what they cross, both literally and metaphorically. They also discussed the limits and power of borders, the ways in which their research (or the subjects of their research) cross borders, the research and/or activism that has most guided or inspired them, and the kind of research that is most needed to meet the challenges of the present.
