Dr. Julie Shayne presents two papers at the National Women’s Studies Association conference
Julie Shayne, Teaching Professor of Gender Women & Sexuality Studies and Global Studies, presented two papers at this year’s annual National Women’s Studies Association conference.
The first paper, “The Movement for Kamala Harris: Joy Bound by 107 Days,” explores the grassroots activism behind Kamala Harris’s 2024 presidential campaign and draws on research for Shayne’s forthcoming book, “Joy Interrupted: The Movement for Kamala Harris” (SUNY Press, fall 2027). In connection with this year’s conference theme, “Wild Feminisms,” Shayne also organized a panel titled “Wildly Optimistic: 107 All-in Days for Kamala Harris.”
She also presented at a roundtable session organized by the Publishing Feminisms Interest Group. Shayne’s presentation was called “On Teaching Students to Write Public Scholarship” and focused on three of her signature assignments:
All of the assignments are hosted on the Feminist Digital Center, which she co-created with digital scholarship librarian, Denise Hattwig.
