Academic Drag and the Queer Project

We change it up a bit this week and interview co-authors Alyssa Samek and Theresa Donofrio about their article, “‘Academic Drag’ and the Performance of the Critical Personae: An Exchange on Sexuality, Politics, and Identity in the Academy” in Women’s Studies in Communication. The authors talk through their writing process, the queer project, and the implications for professional socialization. Take a listen and let us know what you think.
