OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Dána-Ain Davis is Professor of Urban Studies and Anthropology and director of the Center for the Study of Women and Society at the Graduate Center in New York. Davis’ work covers two broad domains: Black feminist ethnography and the dynamics of race and racism. With regard to the former, Davis has co-edited or co-authored two books on feminist ethnography with Christa Craven, reasserting the importance of feminist ethnographic production as a fundamental anthropological intervention. The most recent being Feminist Ethnography: Thinking Through Methodologies, Challenges and Possibilities (2016). Davis also examines the ways race and racism animate neoliberalism and reproduction. This foci has resulted in one co-edited volume with Shaka McGlotten, Black Genders and Sexualities(2013) and two single authored books Battered Black Women and Welfare Reform: Between a Rock and Hard Place (2006) and the recently published Reproductive Injustice: Racism, Pregnancy, and Premature Birth (2019).
