Collaborative Projects

The Femeniños Project

The femeniños project is a children's literature and narrative film initiative exploring the relationship between queer Latino/x youth and their families.


Our Mission: to nurture queer Latina/o/x, Chicana/o/x, and Indigenous individuals and communities through practices that recognize the importance of linking art, activism, and scholarship.

FMS (The Future of Minority Studies)

The Future of Minority Studies research project (2000-2012) was initiated by a consortium of scholars and academic institutions with a primary interest in minority identity, education and social transformation. FMS was organized as a mobile “think tank” designed to facilitate focused and productive discussions across disciplines.
