Tiffany Lethabo King is Associate Professor of Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies at the University of Virginia. Professor King’s work is animated by abolitionist and decolonial traditions within Black Studies and Native/Indigenous Studies. In her Knapp Chair Lecture, Dr. King will discuss themes from her forthcoming book, "Red and Black Alchemies of Flesh: Conjuring a Decolonial and Abolitionist Now", in which she invokes both Black and Native queer feminist thought to link to the power of the erotic, to think beyond the carceral and casual violence of the state, and to imagine a bold and beautiful future of inclusion and belonging.

Death metal pioneers Cannibal Corpse will perform live at The Observatory on Wednesday, November 23 at 6:00 p.m. While they continue to do what they do with aplomb, the one substantial change to Cannibal Corpse in 2020 is the addition of guitarist Erik Rutan to their ranks, joining Webster, founding drummer Paul Mazurkiewicz, guitarist Rob Barrett and vocalist George "Corpsegrinder" Fisher. Known for his roles in Morbid Angel, Ripping Corpse and most notably fronting the mighty Hate Eternal, Rutan has long established himself as one of the most dynamic forces in contemporary death metal. Simultaneously, he has built up a reputation as one of the most in demand producers in metal, having previously produced four Cannibal Corpse albums, alongside the likes of Goatwhore, Soilent Green and Belphegor. Filling in live on guitar since 2019, in 2020 he became a full member, contributing to the writing process. Special guests Dark Funeral, Immolation, and Black Anvil will also be performing alongside Cannibal Corpse for their 2022 North American Tour.
