 Professor DiPietro’s main research project focuses on decolonial ways of thinking and producing difference. To study styles of being permeated by indigenous cosmologies (Aymara, Quechua, and Nahua), they look into the production of queer space by comparing networks of racialized travestis in the Andes to jotería networks in the San Francisco Bay area. Travesti and Jotería both point to the geopolitical tensions between West and non-West. Latina and Chicana spatial thinking enables the comparative study that DiPietro pursues. This project is two-fold. On the one hand, it examines geopolitical linkages between subaltern queerness from Latin American indigenous/mestizo backgrounds and vernacular spirituality among Latinas/os in the United States. On the other, it weaves regional epistemologies of gender/embodiment together with decolonial critiques of the human/non-human distinction and their ethico-political aftermath across comparative ethnic, gender, and sexuality studies.
 DiPietro is the co-editor of Género, Sexualidades, y Regulaciones Culturales (2008) and is currently co-editing, with Jen McWeeny and Shireen Roshanravan, a volume on the work of Latina Philosopher María Lugones. They publish in leading journals within the field such as Gender, Place, and Culture and Transgender Studies Quarterly. They are working on a book manuscript under the title Sideways Selves: the Politics of Space and Passion.
