deadline for submissions: 
Friday, July 31, 2026

Dear Colleague, We invite you to contribute to a forthcoming edited volume, A Global Companion for Anti-Racist Education and Solidarity Work. This volume brings together educators, researchers, and community practitioners engaged in the everyday work of confronting racism and cultivating more just educational environments. Rather than treating anti-racist education as abstract or purely theoretical, this volume centers practice. We begin from the premise that some of the most generative forms of anti-racist work are already unfolding in classrooms, schools, community organizations, and local movements.

Analog Activism and Its Digital Entanglements: Responsive Public Pedagogies of Resistance

Melissa Ames, Eastern Illinois University & Kristi McDuffie, University of Illinois
deadline for submissions: 
Monday, November 16, 2026

In the 2000s and 2010s, social networking facilitated citizen-based activism of enormous significance like #BlackLivesMatter and #MeToo. But in the 2020s, corporate enshittification and government surveillance have restricted the reach of social networking tools. For example, Elon Musk’s purchase of Twitter meant that many users left X rather than adapt their activist practices to the restrictive corporate environment (Tenbarge & Collier 2024). Instances such as the Trump administration’s use of social media posts to target international students during the Gaza protests caused many users to avoid social media altogether (Lonas Cochran 2025).

Reminder: Teaching the Nineteenth Century in Today's University

NeMLA 2027 Annual Convention in Newport, RI, March 6-9, 2027

Abstracts due 9/30

In an environment of increasing digital distraction, courses exploring nineteenth-century literature and culture ask students to engage with some of literature’s lengthiest texts. How can we encourage meaningful engagement with nineteenth century “loose, baggy monsters” in today’s university? What resources can we call upon to better engage our students and support their learning in light of the rise of AI and the challenges of online distraction?

Teaching Marginalised and Contested Histories: Pedagogy, Curriculum, and Historical Knowledge

Sarah Trott & Alice Brumby / York St John University
deadline for submissions: 
Monday, January 11, 2027

What does it mean to teach a history that has been marginalised? 

Questions surrounding the teaching of marginalised, contested, and difficult histories have become increasingly important across educational systems, universities, museums and other sites of historical education internationally. Yet discussions of inclusive and diverse curricula can sometimes obscure a more fundamental question: how, and at what point, does a history become marginalised in the first place?
