My essay "Nostalgia and Chronicity: Two Temporalities in the Restaging of AIDS" is out in @JournalTheatre. It considers performances by Demian DinéYazhi ́ and Karen Finley as they navigate tensions between the past and ongoing AIDS pandemic

My new office is right above a room where a very talented concert pianist practices all day and I'm not complaining... it's a bit inspirational

A little quote from me about dancing in Detroit in Petra Kuppers beautiful new book Eco Soma: Pain and Joy in Speculative Performance Encounters

‘Performance, Dance and Political Economy: Bodies at the End of the World' is hot off the press. It was a real pleasure to be in conversation with and write about Niv Acosta & Trajall Harrell vis-à-vis Foucault and the affect of rage. https://t.co/KEylsfFDVG

Under-examined in vaccine hesitancy discourse is how decades of a “you’re on your own” approach to health makes it hard to get ppl to buy into collective health campaigns. If society doesn’t care if one is indebted due to cancer, why should individuals care abt herd immunity?

@JMRwrites Happy to answer any questions that might come up. Thank you for teaching this!

I enjoyed reviewing Robb Hernández's new book Archiving an Epidemic: Art, AIDS, and the Queer Chicanx Avant-Garde for TDR: The Drama Review. It's a brilliant account of queer Chicanx art practices that confront the AIDS pandemic https://t.co/yV4Nscwn9X

It was really fun to reflect on my postdoctoral research in @UMSocialWork's Ahead Magazine. In this profile, I talk about how I've adapted the Social Justice Pilot Grant that I received in the time of COVID-19. https://t.co/IAqIZEWpGf

@JMRwrites Thanks Jo! I'm so glad you were there. Looking forward to continuing our conversation!

What a treat to have @faye_driscoll visit class last night and discuss her current work at @walkerartcenter. She offered some brilliant ideas for students thinking about making performance virtually. https://t.co/7nIkMfYbH8

@larrylafountain @umichCWPS @kfinleyartist Thanks for the shout out <3

How is performance being used to respond to the political, social, health and environmental crises that we face in this moment? Check out my talk on Sept. 22nd as well as these other incredible artist/scholars. I'll be speaking specifically about AIDS in our particular moment.

We remember a time when HIV/AIDS was called “gay-related immune deficiency” aka GRID and “gay cancer”. NEVER AGAIN will we let world leaders transfer blame to communities. Trust science over discrimination always.
