Political protest has long been central to literary and cinematic histories from ideological and artistic manifestos to political pamphlets to satirical novels and realist cinema. They remain powerful vehicles for stimulating public debate, issuing calls to action, speaking truth to power, and heightening awareness of social ills. Despite censorship, marketplace economics, and national politics, literature, film, and numerous other modes of cultural / aesthetic production continue to play an important role not only as agents of social critique but also as agents of social change.
NOTE: EXTENDED DEADLINE, Due to the MLA's own extension of the deadline for special session applications, I have extended the deadline for this cfp, in consideration of the personal and professional turmoil caused by the COVID-19 pandemic
