ALT Call for workshop participants Lavender Languages 30 (Brighton UK August 21-23 2024) On the heels of Redoing Linguistic Worlds: Unmaking gender binarities, remaking gender pluralities (RLW, Multilingual Matters, Knisely & Russell, eds.), we propose a collaborative workshop that will set the foundations for the next volume in this series. This workshop will bring together scholars –especially those up-and-coming– who are working on questions of language, gender, and identity in non-English linguacultural contexts, with primary emphasis on those not covered in the first volume and those under-represented in contemporary scholarship. Rather than present polished papers or even more tentative works-in-progress, we wish to foster open discussion and brainstorming. This panel will hold space for the scholars who are unsure as to how such research might be imagined, begun, or conducted,... consult krisknisely.com/rlw2 for full call

Please consider signing this petition in support of Languages at the University of Aberdeen. Three out of our School's five women professors stand to lose their job, which would only widen their 18% pay gap, and most of the students are women.
