I’m heartbroken that so many brilliant scholars could not attend #SCMS25 out of the completely understandable and real fear for their safety.

Dear QTC Members, please check your inboxes for an important message from our senior co-chair @slavagreenberg.bsky.social about conference updates and accommodations for those not travelling due to the current hostility at the border targeting trans and nonbinary individuals in particular.
