Hello all, Eve and I are happy to announce our last event of the semester with Dr. Teona Williams <https://geography.rutgers.edu/people/faculty/faculty-member/973-williams-teona>! She will be giving her talk entitled, "It's Been a Disaster Here: Black Feminist Disaster Interventions in the Mississippi Delta" on *Wednesday, May 8th, at 5 pm in the Kresge Room in Barker*. You can RSVP for the talk here <https://forms.gle/jRsuNpDTX8GtKKzD6>. Additionally, please find her paper for the talk attached below for you to read before the event. There will be food provided! Teona Williams is a Presidential Postdoctoral Fellow in the Department of Geography at Rutgers University. Her work revolves around Black Geographies, 20th century African American and environmental history, and Black feminist theory. Her current work explores the role of disaster and hunger, in shaping Black feminist ecologies from 1930-1990s. Specifically, she follows a cadre of rural Black feminists who articulated visions of food sovereignty, overhauled antiblack disaster relief, and vigorously fought for universal basic income, radical land reform, and food and clean water access as a human right. Dr. Williams is a graduate of Bowdoin College; received their Masters at the University of Michigan-Ann Arbor and their doctorate from Yale University. Thanks so much, Andrew + Eve American Studies Workshop, Coordinators
