CFP: 2027 MLA Convention
The 2027 convention (#MLA27) will take place in Los Angeles from 7 to 10 January 2027. The presidential theme for the convention is Emancipatory Narratives.
I invite 300-word proposals (with a short bio) discussing how counterstory-informed pedagogy creates space for emancipatory narratives in the age of GenAI.
