    proposal creation and submission (<strong>Pre-Award</strong>) and award management (<strong>Post
    Award</strong>) support.<span>  </span></p>
    
    <p>The PI, CoI(s) and Chair(s) will need to work with the Kuali
    proposal aggregator and each other to determine the split they feel is
    appropriate and reasonable for everyone in every category.</p>
    
    <p><strong><em>Where can you learn more about the credit split?</em></strong></p>

<Title>New Faculty Working Group on Anti-Racism and Action</Title>
<Tagline>Call for Participants</Tagline>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">The <strong>Dresher Center for the Humanities</strong>, the <strong>Center for Social Science Scholarship</strong>, the <strong>Center for Innovation, Research, and Creativity in the Arts</strong>, and the <strong>Imaging Research Center</strong> invite participants to join our new Faculty Working Group: <strong>Anti-Racism and Action</strong>.
     This new group builds on the enthusiastic response to our Anti-Racism 
    and Action series of drop-in sessions in summer/fall 2020 and seeks to 
    promote new coalitions, conversations, and creative work surrounding 
    anti-racism in the College of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences.  The
     Faculty Working Group is envisioned as a collaborative, 
    interdisciplinary community of scholars that will support this work and 
    spur research and teaching activity focused on anti-racism. The group 
    will meet regularly to read, discuss, listen to experts, and/or plan 
    research and activism, as the members may decide. Funds up to $1,000 
    annually will be allocated to host speakers, explore technologies, 
    create new resources or materials, or other similar activities. We 
    welcome faculty from any UMBC department, other area colleges and 
    universities, as well as advanced UMBC graduate students.<br>
    <br>
    To apply, complete the <strong>Anti-Racism and Action Faculty Working Groups Application Form</strong> <strong><a href="https://umbc.us13.list-manage.com/track/click?u=09efd8aa82b8b9e83364710f9&amp;id=94ed589a6b&amp;e=d12f20d780" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">HERE</a></strong> by December 15. Those who would be willing to serve as a co-leader of the group are encouraged to note that on the form.</div>

The working group serves as a steering body for ongoing digital storytelling activities and connects with other campus work that involves storytelling for civic agency and engagement. The group promotes opportunities for faculty involved in digital storytelling research to share their experiences through presentations, workshops, roundtables and a possible one-day conference.</div><div><br></div><div>Disability Studies</div><div>Leaders: <a href="holladay@umbc.edu" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Drew Holladay</a> (English) and <a href="stran@umbc.edu" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Sharon Tran</a> (English)</div><div><br></div><div>This group will focus on reading interdisciplinary scholarship in disability studies (DS) and its application in higher education and other contexts. They will read and discuss DS and DS-related theories of embodiment, epistemology, methodology, subaltern politics, and cultural analysis. Applications of DS include programs of inclusion, universal design, and accessibility in education and elsewhere (such as accessibility in technology and digital spaces). Group conversations will include how faculty can use DS scholarship in their classes and to redesign their own teaching practices. <br></div><div><br></div><div><strong>Immigration</strong></div><div>Leaders: <a href="poggio@umbc.edu" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Sara Poggio</a> (Modern Languages, Linguistics and Intercultural Communications), <a href="gindling@umbc.edu" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">T. H. (Tim) Gindling</a> (Economics), and <a href="filomeno@umbc.edu" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Felipe Filomeno</a> (Political Science and Global Studies)</div><div><br></div><div>The Immigration faculty working group brings together faculty members and graduate students who study international migration. Its purpose is to promote interdisciplinary collaboration in teaching, research, and service related to international migration at UMBC. International migration is a complex phenomenon, with cultural, economic and political aspects. Its causes, processes and consequences have been analyzed in multiple disciplines, from a variety of theoretical perspectives and with different research methods. UMBC currently has several faculty members and graduate students whose work on immigration reflects this diversity of approaches. However, for the most part, this work has been carried out independently, by individual faculty members and graduate students within their home departments. There is an untapped potential for interdisciplinary collaboration in teaching, research and service related to this broad theme. <br></div><div><br></div><div><strong>*NEW* Latin American Feminisms</strong></div><div><em>Leaders: <a href="mcelleri@umbc.edu" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">María Célleri</a> (Gender, Women’s, and Sexuality Studies), <a href="lizarazo@umbc.edu" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Tania Lizarazo</a> (Modern Languages, Linguistics, and Intercultural Communications and Global Studies), Y<a href="yolanda@umbc.edu" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">olanda Valencia</a> (Geography and Environmental Systems), and <a href="munozt@umbc.edu" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Thania Muñoz D</a>. (Modern Languages, Linguistics, and Intercultural Communication)</em></div><div><br></div><div>The Latin American Feminisms Working Group is an interdisciplinary multilingual research group that focuses on feminist and decolonial Latin American and Caribbean scholarship from a hemispheric perspective. Attentive to the inequitable politics of translation between South America and North America, the group centers scholarship from and for Latin America and the Caribbean.In particular, it considers the formation of Latin American and Caribbean feminisms from a decolonial and intersectional framework that honors the work of Indigenous, Black, and Brown women. We bring together faculty, graduate students, artists, and community members from the humanities and social sciences to engage in and debate issues around race, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, class, mobility, feminism and decoloniality as these pertain to the Latin American and Caribbean hemisphere, which begins in the Southern Cone and extends to the Latinx/Chicanx diaspora. We read and discuss recent work around Latin American and Caribbean studies, invite scholars from Latin America to speak about their work, as well as collaborate to support our work and move our research projects forward.</div><div><br></div><div><strong>Sound Studies</strong></div><div><em>Leader: <a href="earlb@umbc.edu" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Earl Brooks</a> (English)</em></div><div><br></div><div>Over the past decade, sound studies has been generating a buzz in disciplines across the humanities. The dual purpose of this group is to: 1) facilitate more cross-disciplinary discussions about sound, and 2) bring together faculty members with shared interests to encourage collaboration. The group discusses relevant sound studies issues from different disciplinary perspectives, has informal presentations of their own in-process work, and listens to invited talks from guest speakers.
