Kezia Page, Associate Professor of English and ALST, will share from her recently published book, Inside Tenement Time: Suss, Spirit, and Surveillance.

It focuses on surveillance and the responses to surveillance, particularly in the stories of people who inhabit yards and tenements. In this talk, she will look at the famed Tivoli Gardens incursion (2010) both as catalyst and aftermath of surveillance and how denizens of Tivoli, specifically women, complicate top-down notions of surveillance.This event is part of the Center's brown bag series.Lunch will be provided. - 11:30 AM1h 30mInside Tenement Time: Suss, Spirit, and SurveillanceAcademics | Center for Women's Studies, The Lounge at East Hall
