Join us for a book talk with Dr. Lauron Kehrer, author of "Q***r Voices in Hip Hop," at 7 PM on Tuesday, Jan. 31. The event will be held in Waldo Library, Room 3014.

RSVP: wmich.libcal.com/event/10164983

About the book:
"Notions of hip hop authenticity, as expressed both within hip hop communities and in the larger American culture, rely on the construction of the rapper as a Black, masculine, heterosexual, cisgender man who enacts a narrative of struggle and success. In 'Q***r Voices in Hip Hop,' Lauron J. Kehrer turns our attention to openly q***r and trans rappers and positions them within a longer Black q***r musical lineage."
