Mobilizing Justice: Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Law, Crime, Justice and Mobilities in Winnipeg, Canada
Presentation of our paper “In the Name of Health: Affect Theory and the Role of Public Health Risks in the Creation of Carceral Spaces” with colleagues Sophie Lachapelle and Dr. Jennifer M. Kilty. We discuss how public health is carceral, by mobilizing examples of strategies invoked to manage unhoused people during the COVID-19 pandemic in two Canadian cities, Vancouver, British Columbia and Kingston, Ontario, noting in particular how public health uses the affective language of risk to carceral ends. Such an interdisciplinary analysis of public health and carcerality helps reveal the palpable, yet slippery, characteristics of carceral spaces in our current epoch.
MAX Ottawa Presentation on HIV Nondisclosure and the Law
This presentation offers an overview of the law as it pertains to HIV nondisclosure. We went over some of the key demographics and harmful consequences of criminalizing HIV nondisclosure as well as different scenarios that do or do not constitute grounds for criminalization according to the law as it currently stands. We reviewed some of the important work that is being done in Canada to change the law and how you can get involved.
