AREA: Native America and Performance
The Popular Culture Association (PCA) invites papers/presentations and
workshops for a Native American AREA at the Fourth International Conference
of the Americas, Sept. 29th - Oct. 3rd, University of the Americas (UDLA)
near Puebla, Mexico.
In a postcolonial Native America, entire communities are often involved in
festivals, parades, and political performances in which people execute
power, celebration, and resistance. Sometimes these manifestations include
dance, theater, music, and the visual arts. Of particular interest for this
area are those instances in which Native American Indians and other peoples
from North America, Mexico, the Caribbean, Central and South America
express and experience issues of race, gender, and class in popular,
everyday, and transcultural performance.
Other topics related to Native Americans are also welcome.
Send inquires and/or abstracts of approx. 150 words (in English or Spanish)
by May 20. Please indicate whether you would like to participate as
panelist, chair, or respondent.
