Feminism and Hip Hop Conference Call for Papers (Deadline: February 15, 2005)
A segment of the Feminism and Hip Hop conference has been designed to feature the work of 9-12 graduate students whose work is directly related to the conference theme of feminism and hip hop. Attending to the social, political and cultural forces that affect feminism and hip hop such as oral and visual media, religion, sexuality, activism, education, and language, we expect that these papers will appropriately engage and challenge prior scholarship and most importantly, represent the future direction of hip hop and feminist studies. Graduate student panels will be held on Friday, April 8th in the morning.
Submission Guidelines
Interested graduate students should submit an abstract and bio. Abstracts must be 500 words or less, and they should include the title of the paper, a brief bio and description of your current work and interests in graduate school, and contact information (name, institutional affiliation, department, year in graduate school, and e-mail address). All abstracts should be submitted as a Microsoft Word document that includes double-spacing, 12 point Times New Roman font, and a header with your name and page numbers. Conference presentations will be approximately 20 minutes.
Abstracts should either be mailed to The Center for the Study or Race, Politics and Culture, Hip Hop and Feminism Abstracts, 5733 S. University Ave, Chicago, IL 60637 or sent via e-mail to CSRPC@uchicago.edu. All abstracts must be received by 5:00 p.m. CST on February 15, 2005.
