Quan Zhou: Race Narratives through Contemporary Media: Comic, Podcasts & AI

KJC Chair Quan Zhou in conversation with Wan Sonya Tang (Boston College) and Mary Kate Donovan (Skidmore College) about her work and how different contemporary media have influenced and impacted the expression of race issues in Contemporary Spain from a Sino-Spanish perspective.

Together, they will also discuss the relative absence of important role models in Spain (when compared to other national contexts) of artists and writers who critically engage and theorize issues of race and identity. In addition to a focus on Quan’s recent publications and blog, they will also address the medium of the podcast and the lack of racialized voices recorded in Spain today. By thinking across media and offering a comparative frame in which to situate Quan’s work, this event will contextualize Quan’s work through the lens of contemporary racialized media practices in and beyond Spain.
