Happy Hour with Heba Gowayed
Friday, January 27
5:30 p.m. 
Rubenstein Commons

Join us for a happy hour on Friday, January 27 in Rubenstein Commons featuring a short presentation by Member Heba Gowayed from the School of Social Science.

Heba is an ethnographer whose research examines how race and gender intersect to shape people's lives as they move across borders. Specifically, she considers how low-income people traverse social services, immigration laws, and their associated bureaucracies, while grappling with gender and racial inequalities.

While at the Institute, Heba is working on her second book project “The Cost of Borders,” which theorizes borders as a costly and often deadly transaction.
