Miss Ann and Mister Charlie: Confronting Whiteness

CAAS Board-Sponsored Panel

The popularity of the Wypipo as a Twitter hashtag has drawn new attention to the ways in which various communities have long critiqued the ways of whiteness and its practitioners from beyond the academy. This board-sponsored panel invites papers that consider such critiques, whether historical, virtual, literary, cinematic, or beyond.  Topics might include white fragility, Women’s Marches, cultural products such as Dear White People, viral Beckys, and more.

Please send 250-word proposals/abstracts and short (100-words) bios by November 15 to  jennifer.harris@uwaterloo.ca
