Hi Barbara,
I am working with Dr. Laura Horak on her Transgender Media Portal https://transgendermediaportal.ssac.carleton.ca/ project (featuring trans film screening information and video games past and present). We are hoping to recruit a number of students for September 2021, including those who aren’t currently uOttawa or Carleton University students, but who might want to apply. May I lean on you to help spread the good word to students in the Global Outlook DH network?
In hopes and with thanks, Connie
