DEADLINE EXTENDED - NOW MARCH 18, 2020. This panel pursues MSA's conference theme this year, "Streets," by discussing "Street Smarts."  

Modernism has its smart sets, not just Mencken’s but in Stein’s salons and Woolf’s Bloomsbury, and in the serious philosophical engagements (and antipathies) of T.S. Eliot, Dora Marsden, Samuel Beckett, and others. But how do “street-smarts” inform conversations about modernism’s epistemological and intellectual positions? How do the streets, with their marginal figures and spaces, refine critical views of what counts as knowing? How do the streets re-orient epistemology with a phenomenology of everyday things? 

The Africana Studies Advisory Committee of the Africana Studies Program at Bowling Green State University invites undergraduate and graduate students to submit papers to the inaugural online edition of Emerging Perspectives in Africana Studies. Emerging Perspectives in Africana Studies encompasses a wide range of topics spanning time and place, from current and historic political events, to artistic and cultural developments, and environmental change.
