Join the Department of Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies next week on 10/28 from 12:30-2:00pm for “Juntxs Somos Más”: Feminist Mobilization in Puerto Rico and the Power of the Masses, a presentation of research by visiting scholar Amaury (AJ) Rijo Sanchez.. . . . This is a hybrid event and will take place in CMC 202T and via Teams. Email cas-wgs@usf.edu for the Teams link.. . . . Description: The precarious living conditions in Puerto Rico, shaped by austere governance and atmospheric disasters, are met with persistent efforts by Puerto Rican feminists to pursue social justice and community welfare. These feminists critique governmental neglect and engage in collective and coalitional organizing to resist U.S. imperialism, building alliances and centering marginalized voices. The study explores these feminist mobilizations through participant observations of 5 marches in 2023, highlighting the importance of analyzing both collective and coalitional actions in understanding their feminist decolonial praxis.. . . . Amaury (AJ) Rijo Sánchez is an interdisciplinary scholar seeking his doctorate’s degree in the discipline of Sociology. His research interests look at gender and sexualities, transnational feminisms, Latinx and Puerto Rican studies, and social inequalities. His teaching has been recognized by institutional awards such as the Outstanding TA Award (2023). Similarly, his writing has been supported by internal awards such as the sociology's departmental Summer Writing Scholarship (2023). His modest and growing publication record has shined in both solo and collaborative papers.
