This collection will provide college-level instructors with short, provocative, and practical essays on new, antiracist methods for teaching poetry. We’re keen to identify outmoded approaches that need to be unsettled, and we invite you to write against their inadequate, outdated, toxic, and downright racist effects. Ultimately, Unsettling Poetry Pedagogy seeks to put antiracist teaching and research directly in conversation with each other, offering productive, tangible ways for poetry classrooms to confront social injustice.

Auburn University at Montgomery

February 24-25, 2022

Sponsored by the Association of College English Teachers of Alabama and Auburn University at Montgomery

The ASAA Conference 'Social Justice in Pandemic Times' will bring together academics, activists, artists, students, practitioners and community members from across disciplines with shared interest in Asia, including Asian communities in Australia and globally.

The biennial Asian Studies Association of Australia (ASAA) conference is the largest gathering of experts working on Asia in the southern hemisphere and has been a regular feature of Australian scholarly life since 1976. 

Many professionals abide by an ethics of care in their work with patients, clients, and students. These documents provide guidelines about how people in a professional (and thus power-holding) role should act towards those they work with. No such ethics of care exists for writers broadly and, more specifically, for writers who write about those who need care or who primarily write about caring for others. While an ethics of care for writers is not necessarily a requirement or the end goal of this panel, this panel considers the stakes of representing care in cultural artifacts, especially when the act of care is centered over experiences of disability or illness.

Please consider submitting an abstract to this session for the NEMLA 2022 conference which will be held on March 10-13, 2022 in Baltimore, MD. This session, "Navigating Police Brutality, Incarceration and Care across the Black Diaspora seeks to examine literary representations of: networks of care in carceral spaces, transformative healing and justice, and community organizing.
