ROUNDTABLE: "Don’t confine your fashion enjoyment to a gender binary”: Mutual Aid, Queer Theory, and a Gender-Affirming Closet

Tiki Ellis, Winona State University
Chyenne Tyler, Winona State University
Drake Onyx, Winona State University
Travis Vatland, Winona State University

College of Liberal Arts

Women's, Gender and Sexuality Studies

10:00 AM - 10:45 AM

During the Spring 2023 semester, the WGSS 374: Queer Theories and Politics course studied the mutual aid and LGBTQ+ community organizing. Trans studies scholar Dean Spade defines “mutual aid is the radical act of caring for each other while working to change the world” (2020). Amidst national attacks on trans youth via anti-trans bills, our course imagined how collective care and mutual aid provide vehicles to “protect trans youth.” This roundtable will offer space to hear our reflections and how we localized queer praxis—theory and action—by organizing a gender-affirming closet and resource event with community partners.
