Among her many research interests, noted sexuality and queer theory scholar Juana Rodriguez studies how various forms of representation can transform the way we “see” people.

Rodriguez is a Distinguished Visiting Scholar and her talk is supported in part through funding from the Office of the Provost: Distinguished Visiting Scholar Program.
