Queer Lecture Series: Bi, Brown and Brilliant: Reclaiming Stories in the Borderlands ft: Bianca Zamora

Zamora, a proud queer Latina feminista educator and alumni of the SSU WGS major and Queer Studies minor, will enact her performance auto-ethnography that draws from Gloria Anzaldúa’s Borderlands: La Frontera to explore the relationship between colonialism, racism, sexism, and biphobia. Coordinator for the CSU Monterey Bay Otter Cross-Cultural Center, Bianca utilizes intersectional and arts to explore issues of power, identities, and coalition building.

Outside of work, she engages in community advocacy through poetry. Most recently Bianca spoke at the 2019 Monterey Peninsula Pride and the 2020 Womxn's March. She holds a Student Affairs Master’s degree from Miami University.

The Queer Studies Lecture Series is made possible thanks to the WGS Department, Queer Studies Minor, SSU Instructionally Related Activities Program,  Student Involvement, The Louise Lawrence Transgender Archive, and The HUB Cultural Center. Q
