CFP: 2025 International Remote ISC at SC State 

March 28, 2024 via Zoom

Crossing Borders: Building Bridges in Today’s Global Community

The Department of English and Communications at South Carolina State University invites proposals for individual twenty-minute papers/presentations for the 2025 Intersectional Studies Remote Conference via Zoom on Friday, March 28, 2025.

Papers that explore the 2025 ISC theme “Crossing Borders: Building Bridges in Today’s Global Community” are particularly welcome. What are the different kinds of borders in today’s society?  In what ways can borders be barriers (physical or metaphorical)?  How have those barriers been challenged?  In what ways can borders be permeable areas of possibility?  Who gets to create the borders we face each day?  The ISC also announces the inclusion of a permanent panel on Intersectional Feminisms, and papers addressing various topics in this area are also invited. Papers not placed on that panel will be considered for the larger pool of panels.

The ISC is interdisciplinary and welcomes papers/presentations from a variety of fields. Undergraduate and graduate student presentations are also welcome. The conference is free and open to the public.
