"Critical Articulations of Race to Class in Committed Cinema"

This panel seeks to understand the critical articulation of "race" to
"class" in committed cinema, whether documentary, experimental,
avant-garde, or narrative fiction.  Priority will be given to proposals
focusing on films concerning the "Global South" or "Third World," but
attention to the "West," "Global North," or "First World" is also welcome.
 Proposals should indicate a strong foundation in film and/or cultural
theory, attend critically to cinematic form and structure as well as to
content, and be oriented intellectually toward a critique of political
economy.

Please e-mail a 250-350-word abstract, along with a short bibliography and
brief biographical statement, by August 1, 2013 to:  Terri Ginsberg (
[email protected]).
