About the Conference

The James Weldon Johnson Institute for the Study of Race and Difference (JWJI) and The Graduate Institute of Liberal Arts (ILA) at Emory University present CRITICAL JUNCTURE: Exploring the intersections of race, gender and disability.

CRITICAL JUNCTURE is a conference that seeks to foster discourse on identity, difference and inequality from a variety of disciplinary and interdisciplinary perspectives. We invite the engaged participation of researchers, scholars, community artists, and organizers whose work focuses on the impact of the relationship between social identities and the contexts within which they form. In particular, we will explore the interstices of identity and inequality that bring people into contact with institutional and cultural power in a variety of social spaces (e.g. workplaces, ‘public’ spaces, state institutions, educational systems, local and global economies, and health systems).
