A popular t-shirt claims the first Pride was a riot.

During a police raid on the Stonewall Inn on 28 June 1969, some customers fought back. Resistance continued for several nights. Whilst this may have inspired the first Pride march, it was not the first LGBT+ protest.

The body functions as an active agent in generating knowledge, memory, and stories. This year's conference places the relationship between memory and the body at its core, emphasizing how the latter serves as a site of cultural, political, and historical negotiation. The body exerts significant influence on the creation and retrieval of memory, compelling us to critically examine the individual and collective memories produced and transmitted through the embodied experiences of culture, politics, trauma, and (post)nation.

The Jonathan Bayliss Society invites proposals for a roundtable on American experimental fiction. Beginning at least as early as Moby-Dick, American experimental fiction flourishes in the work of Stein, Burroughs, Pynchon, Gass, and Bayliss, and continues today with such writers as Giannina Braschi, Karen Russell, Colson Whitehead, Lance Olsen, and Mark Danielewski. Such writers disrupt conventions of genre, style, syntax, diction, propriety, narrative form, page layout, and much more. We are interested in papers devoted to particular works or authors as well as more wide-ranging or theoretical approaches to the topic.

FSNNA held its first conference in October 2018 to gather fan studies scholars in one place to meet, share new research, and promote the study of fanworks and fan cultures.
