5th Annual Andrea Jenkins Lecture: Towards a Non-Binary Future

The Andrea Jenkins Lecture Series at the University of Minnesota Twin Cities is an annual lecture that honors Andrea Jenkins and works to center the voices of Queer and Trans People of Color. This series was created in 2017 by the National Center for Gender Spectrum Health and the Gender and Sexuality Center for Queer and Trans Life.

Each year Andrea Jenkins selects one or more artists, performers, or speakers to illuminate pressing issues and topics connected to the lives of Transgender and Queer People of Color.

This year's event will take place in the Coffman Theater (Coffman Memorial Union, East Bank of the Minneapolis campus). The lecture will also be live-streamed and recorded for later viewing.
