Each session will be just an hour, and we'll have coffee and pastries. <strong><em>Faculty, PhD students and post-docs are also welcome. </em></strong><br><br>The info sessions will be:</div>
    <div>
    <ul>
    <li>Friday, Sept. 28, in Commons 318 (note: updated location). </li>
    <ul>
    <li>The 9:20 session on energy research is now expanded to include environmental research more broadly. </li>
    <li>The 10:30 session on research about nonprofits, philanthropy, and safety net issues is now broadened to include social disparities more generally.</li>
    </ul>
    </ul>These sessions are open to both faculty who are approaching this as a new opportunity and faculty who have already written for The Conversation, but would like to meet an editor in person.<div><br></div>

<Title>At the Boundaries of Ourselves/Masculinities &amp; Decoloniality</Title>
<Tagline>AMSA 2019 Call for Papers</Tagline>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <p><strong><span>DATES: April 11-13, 2019</span></strong></p>
    <p><strong><span>Brandon University, Brandon, Manitoba, Canada<br></span></strong></p>
    <p><strong><span>Call for Papers: At the Boundaries of Ourselves: Masculinities &amp; Decoloniality </span></strong></p>
    <p><span>Building off of the innovative presentations and lectures given at the American Men’s Studies Association (AMSA) conference in March 2018 in Minneapolis, this conference seeks to push forward the field of Critical Studies of Men &amp; Masculinities further. Last year the theme – ‘Bodies, Sexualities, Masculinities’ – addressed critical gaps in the field related to sex and sexualities and their connection to bodies. Similarly, this year’s conference looks to examine the holes in the field related to issues of space, borders, location, the interface of space and ontologies (urban, rural, remote... hipsters, lumbersexuals, farmers, but also masculinity, mental health and space), masculinity and dis-location (spatial and ephemeral: inclusion/exclusion i.e.), borders and migration, nation building colonial invasion, ontological hybridity and buttressing (whiteness, one-drop politics, mestizos...), colonialism, indigeneity, and the ways that these impact on men and masculinities globally. As part of this, AMSA is hosting its annual conference for the second time outside of the US at Brandon University in Canada. </span></p>
