The Health and Society program in the Department of Social Science is happy to announce our first annual lecture, Thursday, 14 February 2019, at 2:00pm, with Dr. OmiSoore Dryden (Thorneloe University at Laurentian). Her paper, To Notice Blackness: Blood Codes, “Sexual Deviance,” and Health Equity, focuses on the legacies of colonialism and anti-black racism, which shape knowledge about blood and blood safety. Specifically, how contemporary discourses of blood impact Black personhood. Everyone is welcome to this event.
