About
Nichole Marie Shippen is a Professor of Political Science at LaGuardia. She earned her Ph.D. from Rutgers University in New Brunswick, New Jersey. She is the author of Decolonizing Time: Work, Leisure, and Freedom (2014), for Palgrave Macmillan’s Critical Political Theory and Radical Practice book series. Her book reconsiders discretionary time as a measure of freedom through the concept of temporal autonomy as developed through the Aristotelian-Marxist and critical theory traditions. Her research is further enriched by the respective contributions of feminist, post-colonial, and critical race theory.
Her current book project, Decolonizing Bordertown Violence: Settler Colonialism, Strategies of Elimination and Indigenous Resistance focuses on bordertown violence through the lens of settler colonialism and critical Indigenous theory and its politics of recognition critique. She is the 2022 recipient of a Mellon/American Council of Learned Societies Community College Faculty Fellowship for this book project.
She is also finishing an article, “Queer Survival and Strategies of Political Resistance with(out) Legal Recourse: The Fight for New York City Council’s Gay Civil Rights Bill” in relation to LaGuardia & Wagner Archives’ new exhibit, The Battle for Intro. 2: The New York City Gay Rights Bill, 1971 – 1986 curated by Dr. Stephen Petrus.
