ARTICULATING ANIMALTOPICS CONTACT CHID[AT]UW.EDU FOR ADD CODE IN A WORLD WHERE SUFFERING AND AGENCY CAN BE UNDERSTOOD IN THE WORKINGS OF RACE, GENDER, ETHNICITY, CLASS, ABILITY, AND SEXUALITY, CAN AND SHOULD WE ALSO THINK ABOUT THE SUFFERING AND AGENCY OF ANIMALS? IF WE DO, ARE WE INVISIBILIZING OR FLATTENING HUMAN INEQUALITIES? WE WILL, AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE, CENTER THE WORK OF SCHOLARS AND ACTIVISTS WHO WORK AT THE INTERSECTIONS OF ANIMAL STUDIES AND HUMAN ORIENTED CRITICAL AREA STUDIES.
