Personal profile
Biography
Eli is PhD candidate in the Discipline of History and Archaeology. He is writing a history of three LGBTQ+ community archives that emerged in the late-twentieth century: the Australian Queer Archives (Melbourne, Australia), the ArQuives (Toronto, Canada), and the Hall-Carpenter Archives (London, Britain).
His research interests include twentieth-century histories of sexuality and activism, archive studies, and critical theory. His work often draws on critical theory to write histories of activism outside of increasingly co-opted and normative terms like ‘community’, ‘inclusion’, and ‘diversity’.
