Repost: Casa Arcoíris: Community Resistance Among Militarized Borders - Tomorrow!
A Home for Justice and Dignity for Migrant LGBTQ+ Peoples
RSVP and see original post here:
The Department of Gender, Women's, + Sexuality Studies presents:
Community Resistance Among Militarized Borders: Casa Arcoiris as a Home for Justice and Dignity for Migrant LGBTQ+ Peoples
The ongoing militarization of Kumeyaay territory, better known as the Tijuana-San Diego border region, since colonial and missionary times have attempted to define how we should understand race, indigeneity, sexual and gender expression and identity. The US and Mexican settler governments in this region have only prioritized creating institutions rooted in establishing a regime of power and control through the capitalization of natural resources, urban development, migrant exploitation and indigenous erasure.
This presentation will share work led by LGBTQ+ organizers in response to these challenges and our efforts to create life-affirming institutions. In particular the formation of Casa Arcoíris (CA) in Tijuana as a welcoming space for the LGBTIQ+ Migrant population. CA team members will discuss the principles that have guided their practice, how they operate on a day-to-today basis, the type of services they provide, the current context and needs of LGBTQ+ migrant communities, and the challenges they face as a non-profit organization challenging the on-going militarization and criminalization of our communities.
Andrea Gaspar (Casa Arcoiris co-founder and board member) is a queer Mexican Ñuu Savi person born in San Diego and raised in Tijuana, Kumeyaay Territory. She is earning her PhD in Ethnic Studies from the University of California San Diego. Her current work focuses on the development of life-affirming institutions and community spaces centering the healing and autonomy of Indigenous, Black, migrant, queer and trans peoples. She has sixteen years of community and coalition organizing experience on education, racial, economic, environmental and housing justice.
Edith Méndez (Casa Arcoiris general coordinator) is a Social Work graduate with a community focus from the University of Guanajuato. Feminist, lesbian, IVE (Voluntary Interruption of Pregnancy) companion, activist, and artist. She has collaborated with different civil associations and public institutions accompanying community organizational processes, attention to gender violence, community cultural management, and intervention with Indigenous migrant populations, LGBTIQ+, and women in vulnerable situations.

Yonder Cabinet Reception (Artist Talk & Refreshments)
in the Innovation Lab
The Alan and Wendy Wilson Innovation Lab is proud to welcome The Yonder Cabinet to the Albin O. Kuhn Library & Gallery! Please join us for an artist talk and light refreshments on Thursday, November 14th between 11:00 AM - 12:00 PM in our makerspace, located on the first floor just past the main circulation desk.
The Yonder Cabinet is a collaborative installation project that combines the love of the written word, visual art, and fantastic places. Artists Kelley Bell and Melissa Penley Cormier originally conceived of The Yonder Cabinet as an exercise of the imagination in the midst of the COVID-19 epidemic. Much as the Cabinets of Wonder or wunderkammer from the 16th century collected and housed objects and specimens from far off places while telling stories of science and the natural world, The Yonder Cabinet began as an empty card catalog cabinet and took on new life as the artists filled two of the drawers with dioramas drawn from their favorite literature, enabling them to “travel” to these literary settings at at time of limited mobility.
The Innovation Lab will host workshops in the spring inviting members of the AOK community to make their own drawer dioramas. Details will appear here in the near future! In the meantime, we hope you will visit Kelley Bell and friends at the reception.

Meet Shanika Freeman
INDS Fall 2024 Graduate Highlight Series
B.A.: Recidivism and Policy in Urban Communities
Any other major, minor, certificate, and/or honors that will be on your graduation records
- Minor: Entrepreneurship and Innovation
Degree Mentors
- Dr. Laszlo Korossy, Political Science
- Carrie Sauter, Individualized Study
Why did you choose to major in INDS?
I chose INDS because it allows me to combine my interests in sociology, urban studies, and policy in a way that feels cohesive and focused. The program’s flexibility has been crucial in helping me explore these fields while addressing complex topics like mass incarceration, recidivism, and crime.
What are your plans for after graduation, and how do you see using your INDS degree?
After graduation, I plan to pursue a Fulbright grant to research recidivism and reentry among women in Norway or pursue my Master’s in criminology, where I can continue to focus on prison systems, recidivism, and reentry processes. The fields of recidivism and reentry are inherently interdisciplinary, often requiring a deep understanding of sociology, criminal justice, public policy, and geographical information systems (GIS), among other disciplines. Through my INDS degree, I’ve gained the skills and to navigate these fields to address real-world issues.
