Episode 3: Chat with Dr. R. Cassandra Lord (she/her), Assistant Professor Sexuality Studies at UTM with Graduate Appointment at the Women and Gender Studies Institute (WGSI)
Episode 3
Monday, 11 October, 2021

In this episode, Professor Lord discusses how she approaches her research in the field of sexuality studies in Cuba and Canada, the meaning and value of intersectional approaches to research and life in general, the importance of paying attention to narratives in stories and history, the unique value of adopting a diasphoric approach to her research, and many more. She also gives advice to students of women and gender studies/sexuality studies and encourages students (especially those who may feel stressed and worried about future plans) to cherish and enjoy their time at university!
