Tuesday, September 10, 2013
7:00 pm - 9:00 pm
Gabriel Rosenberg and Clare Counihan

What kinds of sex and sexuality do Cyrus and Thicke's VMA performance deploy? Exploit? To what end? How do race and class inform both of their aesthetics? Join Women's Studies for a discussion of the sexual politics of Thicke and Cyrus's "We Can't Stop"/"Blurred Lines" medley. Join Women's Studies Professors Gabriel Rosenberg and Clare Counihan for a discussion and pizza! This event is open the Duke Students and Faculty only.
