Law's a Drag

Description

Law's a Drag ("LAD") is a network of academics and drag artists (including drag queens, drag kings, nonbinary artists, and more besides) who are engaging in collaborative research on drag artists' lived experience of law, justice, and injustice. LAD takes an interdisciplinary approach with a mixture of methodologies, including queer phenomenology, user experience methods, artistic and theatrical methods (such as forum theatre), queer theory, and other sociolegal approaches. LAD engages in collaborative research with participants, aiming to empower drag artists in the design, oversight, execution, and dissemination of legal research.
