On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
I’m delighted to share with you Before Gender, a groundbreaking new history of trans people by author and activist Eli Erlick.
In an age of mass anxiety around gender identity, this book challenges the pervasive idea that trans identities are a ‘new’ phenomenon. It unearths a rich history — one that has been systematically lost, forgotten or destroyed.
These stories don’t just recover lost histories — they also illuminate a path forwards. By learning from the lives and struggles of trans individuals across time, we can build a more inclusive and understanding future.
