I am writing to announce the publication of *Race and Yoga* 3.1 (2018). *Race and Yoga* is the first scholarly journal to examine issues surrounding the history, racialization, sex(ualization), and inclusivity (or lack thereof) of the yoga community. Our latest issue 3.1 (2018) features a special cluster called "Decolonizing Yoga? and Unsettling Social Justice". 3.1 (2018) contains an interview with Haley Laughter, a Diné teacher from Hozho Total Wellness who talks about the intersections between Indigenous philosophy and yoga practice; a personal narrative from Sheena Sood that explores white supremacy, Hindu fundamentalism, and casteism in yoga spaces; a personal narrative from Natalia Quiñones, María Adelaida López, and Mayme Lefurgey that outlines how yoga is to help people heal from military violence in Colombia; and an article by Michele Tracy Berger that analyzes Black women's critique of a blog post by a white woman yoga practitioner. Check out the issue and share with others. https://escholarship.org/uc/crg_raceandyoga/3/1 Next CFP for 4.1 (2019) : "Institutionalized Yoga" https://escholarship.org/uc/crg_raceandyoga/callForPapers Sincerely, Jennifer Musial *********************************************************************** Jennifer Musial, PhD Assistant Professor Department of Women's and Gender Studies New Jersey City University Jersey City, NJ http://jennifermusial.com Outgoing Chair, Gender, Women's, and Feminist Studies PhD Interest Group (NWSA) Managing Editor, *Race and Yoga *Journal http://escholarship.org/uc/crg_raceandyoga ===== General list info and FAQ: http://comm.umn.edu/~grodman/cultstud.html
