Tonight's Programme:

Dancing Gender: Gesture and Identity among Native American Two Spirits

This presentation explores how Native American gay, lesbian, and transgender people (Two-Spirits or GLBT) find culturally acceptable ways of conveying their gender and sexual identity through dance and performance. Using photographs, clips and over 10 years of research, the presentation shows how ethnicity, gender and sexuality, converge through performed gestures and movement amongst the Native American Two-Spirit Community.

Presentation and Q&A with Max Carocci
