I understand that Chris was also a committed organizer in social movements, particularly those around the University of California and also in Oakland. Can you say a little bit about his politics, how his activism frames this project? Sure. He showed up in Santa Cruz, I think in 2008, basically he was like one of a cohort of graduate students who started right as the financial crash upended any of the fantasies that sustain a lot of people's engagement in this kind of activity.
Featuring Max Fox and Chris Nealon on the late Christopher Chitty's book Sexual Hegemony: Statecraft, Sodomy, and Capital in the Rise of the World System.
