Children’s and YA Literature at Midwest Modern Language Association 2017 November 9-12 in Cincinnati, OH<\/p>\n
In recognition of this year\u2019s conference theme, \u201cArtists and Activists,\u201d we welcome papers that explore issues in children\u2019s and young adult literature broadly, but especially invite those that explore the ways that writers of literature for young people have addressed issues of politics, advocacy, and social justice. In our conversations, we hope to think about the place of literature and activism in the lives of young people.<\/p>\n
Topics could include, but are by no means limited to:
\n\u00b7 The role of the child in society;
\n\u00b7 satire as social commentary;
\n\u00b7 the place of education in society;
\n\u00b7 environmental literature;
\n\u00b7 gender identities, trans- identities, and activism;
\n\u00b7 ethnic identities and activism;
\n\u00b7 digital literacies and digital citizenship.<\/p>\n
