Hi All, The Society for LGBTQ Philosophy is still accepting 500-word abstracts for paper or panel submissions until July 7th for a Special Session on LGBTQ Outrage, Resistance, and Change at APA East. Below is the CFP and a link to share (the PhilEvents listing is currently awaiting an update). Please share widely. CFP: Society for LGBTQ Philosophy, APA Eastern Division Meeting January 3, 2018 to January 6 in Savannah, Georgia Topic: LGBTQ Outrage, Resistance, and Change In “My Words to Victor Frankenstein Above the Village of Chamounix: Performing Transgender Rage” Susan Stryker considers the power of queer rage, writing, “Transgender rage is a queer fury, an emotional response to conditions in which it becomes imperative to take up, for the sake of one’s own continued survival as a subject, a set of practices that precipitates one’s exclusion from a naturalized order of existence that seeks to maintain itself as the only possible basis for being a subject.” In this context, rage is a powerful emotion through which a queer subject can break into and rework conditions of exclusion, striving for possibilities of change. Events such as the Compton’s Cafeteria Riots, the Stonewall Riots, Sylvia Rivera’s speech to gay liberation organizations, ACT-UP’s demonstrations on Wall Street, and Jennicet Gutiérrez’s protest at the White House each mark important moments of LGBTQ outrage and resistance in the service of change. Philosophers such as Foucault and Butler have taken active interest in the implications and meanings of queer resistance, while philosophical work on necropolitics and homonationalism have considered further dimensions such as relationships between queer resistance, racism and xenophobia, and the state. At the same time, the contemporary political climate in the US and beyond, including increased threats of fascism, homophobia, transphobia, white supremacy, and xenophobia, calls for an intensified interest in the possibilities of queer resistance and change, often fueled by outrage and fury. For the upcoming Eastern Division Meeting of the APA, the Society for LGBTQ Philosophy welcomes submissions for panel and/or paper abstracts on topics related to the theme of LGBTQ outrage, resistance, and change. We invite submissions from all areas of philosophy (broadly construed) that take the current political moment (and past) seriously, and seek to grapple through the nuances of LGBTQ mobilization and action.
