The Philosophy of Education Society of Great Britain Strathclyde Branch will host the following Seminar: Dr Sean Henry (Edge Hill University)
Queer joy as method? Exploring religion, queerness, and education
The intersections of religion, queerness, and education can often be fraught for teachers and students in schools, with discussions in this space often marked by polarising discourses and entrenched perspectives. In an effort to move beyond the risks posed by such polarisations, the purpose of this presentation is to explore the potential role queer joy might play as a method for engaging religion, queerness, and education. Emphasis is placed on engaging queerness, religion, and education in ways that are conducive to queer and trans liberation in schools and society.
Location: TL651, University of Strathclyde.
The event is graciously sponsored by the Philosophy of Education Society of Great Britain (PESGB) and runs as part of the Advanced Pedagogical Theory Seminars
