Take That for Data: Decoding Identity, Sport, and Technology

Please join us on November 12 for a lecture and Q&A with Courtney Cox, Assistant Professor in the Department of Indigenous, Race, and Ethnic Studies (IRES) at the University of Oregon.  Her research examines issues related to identity, technology, and labor through sport and wine. Her book, Double Crossover: Gender, Media, and Politics in Global Basketball, considers how Black women and non-binary athletes maneuver through the global sports-media complex. She is also co-director (with Dr. Perry B. Johnson) of The Sound of Victory, a multi-platform digital humanities project located at the intersection of music, sound, and sport. She previously worked for ESPN, Longhorn Network, NPR-affiliate KPCC, and the WNBA's Los Angeles Sparks. 

The series is organized by Stanford's Department of Communication and Center on Philanthropy and Civil Society (PACS) and made possible with support from the Humanities Seed Grant from Stanford Public Humanities.

RSVP is not required, but seating is limited and is first come, first served. Please arrive 5 minutes early to avoid disrupting the guest speaker. Request disability accommodations and access information here.
