During the pandemic when opportunities to talk with other artists in public forums was rather low, I was invited to have an online discussion with Rajiv Mohabir, a poet and Kareem Khubchandani, an academic on the subject of Queer Kinships and South Asian Migrations as explored through our respective work. The virtual event was hosted by Tufts University. You can find a recording of the conversation here.
Rajiv is the author of multiple poetry and chapbooks including The Taxidermist’s Cut, a finalist for the 2017 Lambda Literary Award in Gay Poetry. Kareem is the Mellon Bridge Assistant Professor in the Dept. of Drama & Dance and the Program in Women's, Gender, and Sexuality Studies at Tufts University teaching at the intersection of performance studies and queer studies.
