Yep, Ive spent almost 20 years at Sonoma State University in WGS (2nd oldest WS program in the CSU). Admin shuttered it and July 20 is firing all of us tenured professors. Queer Studies minor we started in 2010 is gone too. They claimed austerity but now there's $ and still we are out.

A fact sheet on Mahmoud v Taylor, SCOTUS oral arguments TODAY: glaad.org/fact-sheet-m...

At the launch we are giving out some free copies to area K-12 educators and SSU students, so come on through! Everyone else, discount code is RUP30 through the link for 30% off.

So weird to have a book out now on the topic in K-12 schools at the same time my university is firing me and all Women’s and Gender Studies faculty and eliminating our department and the Queer Studies minor. We are fighting back!
