QUEERING LA LENGUA: A Gender Inclusive Spanish Workshop- Session #2

Join us to learn more about using gender inclusive language in Spanish!

Queering La Lengua, a workshop on the non-normative uses of gender in the Spanish language, is back this fall with two sessions!

Who is this workshop for? Anyone who engages with Spanish personally or professionally!

Join session #2 on Thu 3/12 @ 1-2:30p for a lab, once acquainted with the current ingeniería lingüística, or uses of neutral and alternative forms to binary language, to practice how to avoid the generic masculine, utilizing collective and abstract nouns with no cultural gender.

Every session is 90 minutes and includes lunch with vegetarian options.

We highly recommend that you will have attended the first session either this spring (Tues 3/3) or last fall and last spring before attending Session #2, but it is not required. Session #1 will provide valuable background and context for Session #2.
