Dr. Meagan Solomon is a feminist scholar, educator, and writer whose work is guided by her lived experiences as a Chicana Jewish lesbian. She is currently an Assistant Professor of Feminist Studies at Southwestern University, where her courses contribute to English, Latin American and Border Studies, and Race and Ethnicity Studies.
Her research centers on queer intimacy, feminist resistance, and decolonial worldmaking in Latina/e feminist and lesbian literature. As an educator, her pedagogy draws from women of color feminisms, decolonial and abolitionist feminist theories, and queer of color critique as a compass for building a socially just world.
