Georgetown University Linguistic Landscape Symposium

The first student-run Georgetown University Linguistic LandscapeSymposium will be held at Georgetown University on April 15, 2011, on the new and emerging topic of Linguistic Landscape: the use of all forms of language in public space. With the development of the field of LL in various places worldwide, we would like to present the opportunity for our fellow students and researchers to share research and get feedback from their peers in a supportive environment. Topics can range from the use of language in urban centers to the Internet’s variety of multimodal representations of public messages. The types of communication that arise from reactions to these media fit the topic as well, so long as the crucial questions are addressed: how do we construct and perceive language in the public domain, and how does it affect our own reactions and interactions?

Symposium participants will include Dr. Elana Shohamy (University ofTel Aviv), Dr. Cecilia Castillo-Ayometzi (Georgetown University), Dr. Aneta Pavlenko (Temple University), and other prominent scholars TBA.

We would like to dedicate this symposium to the memory of Ron Scollon, whose pioneering research was invaluable to the fields of geolinguistics and discourse analysis. After years of mentoring students and faculty alike at Georgetown, Dr. Scollon had a significant impact that was instrumental in the development of LL as a dynamic area of research. We hope that he would be proud to see students taking these topics, expanding upon them, and sharing their findings and theories with others.

Call for Papers

As this will be a symposium run primarily for and by students, we are primarily interested in student work (both undergraduate and graduate) that will be presented in open forum discussions, paper presentations,and a poster session. However, we encourage everyone to submit research for consideration.

Possible topics (including but not limited to): use of text and language in the virtual landscape, multilingualism in public discourse, the impact of media on the linguistic landscape, effects of multimodality in the LL, text in public space as a point of contention, influence of audio on the construction of space,interactions between textual artifacts and their viewers, etc.

Deadline for Abstract Submission: December 17, 2010

Notification of Acceptance: by January 18, 2011

Abstracts should contain information about the focus of the research, methodology used, preliminary results, preference of format (presentation or poster session), and implications of Linguistic Landscape in its broader definitions. Please note that presentations will be limited to 15 minutes, with ten minutes for questions/answers afterward. Abstracts should be limited to 300 words; please indicate if you will need A/V for your presentation. Accepted participants will be required to register by the early deadline.

We understand that the definition of LL is still being shaped and explored. If you aren’t certain that your work fits in, please contact us regarding your topic/research interest and we will be happy to discuss your work’s suitability/possible changes and refer to the number of publications in the area.

Black and Brown Feminisms in Hip Hop Media

Black and Brown Feminisms in Hip Hop Media
University of Texas at San Antonio - March 4-5, 2011

Black and Latina feminist scholars offer multiple ways of understanding feminist cultures that transcend ideological borders and patriarchal conventions. More recently, Black and Latina feminists have negotiated the positionality of the woman of color in the ever-changing world of Hip Hop since its inception. The Black and Brown Feminisms in Hip Hop Media Conference situates Black and Latina feminist theory in the context of Hip Hop representation to discuss ways Hip Hop music, film, and club industries fetishize, exploit, celebrate, empower and/or disempower Black and Brown women.

This interdisciplinary conference will feature unpublished work on women in Hip Hop to exchange ideas, share research, and initiate a sustained conversation by and about Black and Brown women in Hip Hop media. Vital to this discussion is attention to the blurring lines between Black and Latina feminist studies and a dialogue that attempts to understand an interweaving history of objectification, struggle, and potential for agency. How do we read Black and Brown women in Hip Hop culture? What readings of Black and Brown women other than conventional black feminist readings and Latina feminist analyses are cogent? What theories enable those readings? Finally, what would an investigation into autobiographical stories of video models yield? How would those narratives differ from that of more conventional readings?


A select number of accepted papers will be included in a one-day, academic conference at the University of Texas at San Antonio as a part of UTSA’s celebration of Women’s History Month on March 4, 2011 with a Hip Hop performance from local Texas as well as national hip hop artists on the evening of March 5, 2011. This conference will be an opportunity for presenters to share views and concerns on the growing intersections between Black and Brown women in hip hop culture.

Possible Panel Topics Include:

Interdisciplinary Approaches to Gender and Race in Hip Hop
Colorism within Hip-Hop video culture
The New Female Entrepreneur
Negotiating Sexualities
Black and Latina Diasporas
Video Vixens or Video Models?
Female Rappers
Queer Identities
Chicana/o Rap
Alternative Models of Black Femininity
Latinas in Video Model Culture
Intersections of Video Models with Youth Culture
Performing the Black Body/ Brown Body
Reggaeton
Able-Bodied Privilege in Hip Hop Feminisms
A Case Study of Karrine Steffans
Strip Club Culture
Confessions of Video Vixens
Eroticism vs. Pornography
Women as Exchange among a Male Economy

Please submit a 500 word abstract to Kinitra Brooks and/or Marco Cervantes at blackandbrownfeminisms@gmail.com on or before November 15, 2010.
