Biography

Rosa Hamilton is a doctoral candidate working broadly on the history of queer activism, antifascism, and radical social movements in twentieth-century Europe. She is writing her dissertation on western European queer antifascists from the 1960s to the 1980s. She is a co-founder of the Far Right and Antifascism Group, an interdisciplinary collective in Charlottesville, VA which provides a public platform for research on fascism and antifascism, especially for women scholars in a cis-men-dominated field. She received her History BA from UC Davis and her History MA from the University of Virginia.
