Southern Chapter

Now’s the time to polish up that proposal you’ve been ruminating over—and to send it along to our colleague who’s hosting the next biennial Southern American Studies Association conference. Dates are February 12-14 ‘009, the venue is George Mason University, and here’s an update from Eric as of yesterday:

>At this point, we’re planning to launch the
>conference on Thursday evening, February 12,
>with a terrific one-man theatrical performance
>by Patrick Johnson of Northwestern University.
>Patrick’s show is based on his new UNC Press
>book, an oral history of black gay men’s
>experiences in the south. We’ll then have full
>days of sessions, keynotes, coffee, etc. on
>Friday and Saturday.
> —Eric Gary Anderson, .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address)

Details about the keynotes, the coffee, and all that jazz are at our SASA website, http://sasa.gmu.edu/09conference.html, and as for sending in your proposal,

‘Tis the Season!
