Bringing together artists, scholars, activists, and students, from Tufts and beyond, this symposium foregrounds embodied knowledge, lived experiences, and somatic storytelling of those whose bodies are bound within dominant narratives.This year, we intends to explore the forces that inform how we come to exist and how we resist in our bodies. Through panels, workshops, art, performance, and roundtable discussions, the 15th annual symposium will encourage participants to explore themes surrounding accessibility and disability justice, fat embodiment and liberation, bodily autonomy through a gender-diverse lens, and the ways race, gender, class, and coloniality inform the ways we live in our bodies. Join us this April to build community, gather bodies in inclusive spaces, foster critical discourse that challenges normative approaches to the “ideal” body. Together, we hope to find new stories to tell ourselves and envision inclusive, unbound futures for us all.
