Our theme acknowledges the need to keep a focus on pay equity and poverty as well as pay tribute to past CSWS directors Joan Acker and Sandra Morgen, both of whom passed away in 2016. We also remain vigilant in the face of the international refugee crisis, the rise of fascism, the Black Lives Matter and #MetToo movements, the struggles for equity and diversity for LGBTQ peoples, and basic human rights issues. The list goes on. In this edition of CSWS Annual Review ethnic studies professor Ernesto Martinez writes about the film adaptation of a children's book he recently wrote, which is being supported by a CSWS faculty research grant. This applied research storytelling project "responds to the severe underrepresentation of queer Latinx youth in contemporary cultural production." Shoniqua Roach, an assistant professor in the Department of Women's, Gender, and Sexuality Studies writes about her CSWS-supported research, "Black Sexual Sanctuaries," an in-depth analysis of how race, class, gender, sexuality, and space coalesce to produce and foreclose possibilities for sexual citizenship and erotic freedom. We take a look at sociology professor Eileen Otis's ongoing research on labor practices and worker unrest at Walmarts in China. Psychology research professor Michelle Byrne describes research she and her team are doing on the relationships between mental health and the immune systems of adolescent girls. We also learn about the Lesbian History Project being carried out by librarian Linda Long and WGSS professor Judith Raiskin. "A conversation with Walidah Imarisha" focuses on one of our most successful events of last year, the packed presentation Imarisha gave on why there are not more black people in Oregon. Graduate student Kenneth Surles and several of his students discuss the impact for students from Princeton scholar Regina Kunzel's lecture on the psychoanalytic treatment of queer patients at an infamous hospital in Washington, D.C. Topping off the issue are informative articles written by graduate students whose research has been supported through CSWS graduate research grants, including Jane Grant Fellow Laura Strait. Her dissertation research explores pro-life feminism, legible politics, and the edge of women's liberation.enCreative Commons BY-NC-ND 4.0-USWomen--Social conditionsWomen's studiesWomenOther
