Rethinking Intellectual Activism conference

April 12, 2014

Registration for the Rethinking Intellectual Activism conference on April 12, 2014, is now open! This is the first annual LLC Graduate Student Conference and will be held at UMBC.

Join us as we explore the potential meanings and practical implications of “intellectual activism,” which, as a political praxis of knowledge production, validation, and distribution, can take many different forms. By focusing on the notion of “intellectual activism,” the conference aims to open a critical discursive space to question and re-imagine the role of the university in maintaining and/or disrupting the systems and operations of power within and through which the institution functions.

Please use this link to register by March 15th. The finalized conference program can be seen here.
