Join us for a joyful session of #QuarantineLooks: Embracing the Fabulously Mundane with Sami Schalk and Jina B. Kim. How does disability create knowledge essential to surviving a global pandemic? One answer: joy. As an act of pleasure activism and self-care during the pandemic lockdown, Schalk began posting images of herself on social media with sparkly new hairstyles, outfits, and facemasks. The act of dressing up to handle ordinary tasks such as walking the dog or taking out the trash sparked delight and connection with strangers and friends. In her words, "joy begets joy begets joy." Schalk's #QuarantineLooks embraces the lushness of her “fat Black femme” body; challenges what depression looks like; and interrogates what it means to look well or unwell. Chapter 2 of Indisposable: Structure of Support After the ADA will debut a video essay by Schalk, followed by a conversation with Jina B. Kim, a fellow disability studies scholar and maker of quarantine looks.
