Presentations may focus on writers and artists: original fiction, poetry, memoirs, drama, art, music, film and television.

 

All approaches will be honored: interdisciplinary, multicultural, ethnicity, gender, film, literature, history, sociology, political science, media, rhetoric, folklore, and oral history.
