SUMMARY:Thinking Gender 2026: Feminist and Queer Ecologies
DESCRIPTION:Thinking Gender 2026\n36th Annual Graduate Student Research Conference\n“Feminist and Queer Ecologies”\nFriday\, April 17\, 2026\nJames West Alumni Center\, UCLA Campus\nView Conference Program and Schedule\nWatch Videos from Thinking Gender 2026\n \n\nJoin us for a day of graduate student presentations highlighting innovative research at the intersections of gender\, sexuality\, environment\, and justice. The conference will feature keynote speaker Cutcha Risling Baldy (Cal Poly Humboldt; NAS Rou Dalagurr Food Sovereignty Lab & Traditional Ecological Knowledges Institute)\, whose work centers Indigenous feminisms\, land relations\, and food sovereignty. \n“Feminist and Queer Ecologies\,” explores how environments and ecologies are shaped\, understood\, and contested through relations of sex\, gender\, and sexuality. The theme also considers how feminist and queer theorists\, artists\, and organizers have drawn on ecological processes and environmental knowledge to build new insights\, movements\, and practices. \nGendered and colonial ideas of wilderness\, domesticity\, and reproduction have historically shaped landscapes and environmental policy. At the same time\, feminist and queer methodologies—from place-based storytelling to multimodal practice—offer critical tools for climate resilience\, environmental justice\, and community well-being. Around the world\, social movements resisting environmental injustice—from Standing Rock to Flint\, from the Everglades to rural India—have been led by women and gender-expansive people. Climate change and climate justice continue to affect communities differentially along lines of gender\, sexuality\, race\, and class\, revealing how struggles for ecological flourishing are inseparable from feminist and queer justice. \nFeminist and queer ecologies demand multidisciplinary collaboration. This year’s theme invites environmental scientists\, humanists\, social scientists\, artists\, organizers\, and practitioners to come together across methods\, disciplines\, temporalities\, species\, and geographies. It encourages experimentation with scientific inquiry\, ethnography\, storytelling\, political theory\, environmental history\, modeling\, and other forms of knowledge-making and truth-telling. \n\nConference Keynote:\n“Indigenous Women Know How to Save the World: Framing a California Indigenous Ecofeminist Ethic.”\n \nThis talk builds a California Indigenous ecofeminist ethic grounded in place\, fugitivity\, resistance\, and humor. It asks what it means to rethink how we talk about climate change and to recognize how land\, water\, and more than human relatives model resilience\, refusal\, and justice. By examining examples from California such as the damming\, diversion\, and even paving over of rivers\, this talk argues that environmental devastation is not a future fear but an ongoing history that Indigenous peoples have survived and theorized for generations. Green colonialism\, conservation land grabs\, and the expectation that Indigenous communities must solve climate change while contributing the least to it exposes the absurdity and gaslighting in contemporary environmental discourse and policy. At the same time\, Indigenous women who have long been leaders in ecological knowledge and restoration are kept busy navigating patriarchal structures rather than being supported as the scientific and cultural leaders they already are. Ultimately\, this talk explores how the world around us is already feminist\, already resistant\, and already offering models for collective thriving beyond capitalism\, patriarchy\, and extraction. Indigenous peoples carry structures and methodologies that are sustainable\, relational\, and deeply grounded in place. We have lived them. And we are still building these futures now. \nCutcha Risling Baldy\, Associate Professor of Native American Studies at Cal Poly Humboldt researches Indigenous feminisms\, California Indians\, Environmental Justice\, Traditional Ecological Knowledge and decolonization. She is also the Co-Director of the NAS Rou Dalagurr Food Sovereignty Lab & Traditional Ecological Knowledges Institute. \nIn 2025 Dr. Risling Baldy along with Co-Director Dr. Kaitlin Reed were awarded the James Irvine Foundation Leadership Award for their work with the lab. Her book: We Are Dancing For You: Native feminisms and the revitalization of women’s coming-of-age ceremonies received “Best First Book in Native American and Indigenous Studies” at the 2019 Native American Indigenous Studies Association Conference. She received her Ph.D. in Native American Studies at UC Davis; her M.F.A. in Creative Writing from San Diego State University; and her B.A. in Psychology with a Specialization in Health and Development from Stanford University. She is also the volunteer Executive Director for the Native Women’s Collective\, a nonprofit organization that focuses on the continued revitalization of Native American arts and culture. She is Hupa\, Karuk\, and Yurok and enrolled in the Hoopa Valley Tribe. \nThinking Gender Blog Posts\n\n\nFire Tender Film Screening\nTuesday\, February 10\, 2026\n12:15–1:15 PM | CSW|Streisand Center\nJoin us for a screening of Fire Tender\, directed by Roni Jo Draper (Yurok)\, followed by a discussion. \nFire Tender tells the story of Yurok tribal members returning to traditional fire practices as an essential form of land stewardship. The film centers on Margo Robbins—grandmother\, cultural educator\, healer\, and Indigenous fire practitioner—who is leading efforts to restore Yurok fire sovereignty: the right to use fire for tribal land care\, a practice outlawed under settler colonial policies. \n\nCosponsors\nAfrican American Studies Department\nAmerican Indian Studies Center\nAmerican Indian Studies Department\nAnthropology Department\nAsian American Studies Center\nAsian American Studies Department\nBixby Center to Advance Sexual and Reproductive Health Equity\nCenter for Community Engagement\nCenter for the Study of Racism\, Social Justice & Health\nChicana/o and Central American Studies Department\nChicano Studies Research Center\nCritical Race Studies Program (Law)\nDepartment of Geography\nDisability Studies\nEnglish Department\nGender Studies Department\nGraduate Division\nHumanities Division\nInformation Studies Department\nInstitute of American Cultures\nInstitute of Society and Genetics\nInstitute of the Environment and Sustainability\nInstitute on Inequality and Democracy at UCLA Luskin\nInternational Institute\nIris Cantor Women’s Health Center\nLabor Center\nLaboratory for Environmental Narrative Strategies\nLGBTQ Campus Resource Center\nLGBTQ Studies Program\nLuskin Center for Innovation\nRalph J.

SUMMARY:The Fire-Break: Latinx Fire Mitigation Workers and Settler Land Control in Southern California
DESCRIPTION:CULTURE\, POWER\, SOCIAL CHANGE PRESENTS: \nThe Fire-Break: Latinx Fire Mitigation Workers and Settler Land Control in Southern California \nThursday 6.4.26 | Haines Hall 352 | 12:15 PM | Pizza served at noon \nThis presentation discusses the settler practice of managing fire risk to valorize property in Orange County’s wildland urban interface. \nThe presentation draws on four years of ethnographic research with Latinx fire mitigation workers in the chaparral canyon ecologies of Orange County. It also incorporates over three decades of archival materials from the Orange County Fire Authority and Dr. Zarate’s family’s involvement with the County of Orange fire mitigation program. The presentation contends that workers employ Migrant Ecological Knowledge\, a practice grounded in the geographies of dispossession and displacement\, to create forms of care and life in places where personal risks related to health\, legal\, and social precarity accumulate. These affective and social practices amongst workers denaturalize fire management across Southern California as a structure of risk-production that expands settler claims to land through regimes of racialized labor that seek to have Latinx migrants do the work of protecting property from fire and cultural obsolescence. \nSalvador Zarate is an assistant professor in the department of anthropology at UC Irvine. His work dovetails ethnographic research with historical methods and centers on questions of racialized gender\, labor\, and the ecology. His recent work explores Latinx residential gardening\, drought as a science of land domination\, and wildfire as a cultural practice of racial domination and settler conquest. He has published in Anthropology of Work Review\, Journal of Political Ecology\, Feminist Formations\, Catalyst\, Practicing Anthropology\, Latino Studies\, Aztlan\, and others. His co-written book on the politics of doing transformative community research\, Transforming Science\, will be published in May of this year.
