Dear CSAA-ers,


After the stimulating and thought-provoking Minor Culture conference, please consider joining us in Aotearoa to continue conversations about marginalisation, space, and possibilities for activism around carceral geographies and sovereignties.

Space, Race, Bodies II: Sovereignty and Migration in a Carceral Age is an academic and activist conference featuring workshops that address the intersections of criminal justice movements around the incarceration of migrants and communities of colour and Indigenous sovereign movements. SRB II builds on the momentum and opportunities enabled by the first Space, Race, Bodies conference in publicising and disseminating scholarship and activism on the intersections between geography, racism and racialisation.


Presentations and panels are invited to address, but are not limited to, the following:

  *   surveillance and imprisonment in settler colonial and imperial histories
  *   detention and surveillance of migrants and refugees
  *   racial profiling and state violence towards ethnic and marginalised communities
  *   geographies of torture in the 'war on terror'
  *   the geopolitics of homonormativity and pinkwashing
  *   hate crimes and the role of imprisonment as a key modality through which rights protections are secured
  *   intersectionality and social and political forms of exclusion
  *   community and activist challenges to state violence and detention
  *   Indigenous sovereign protest movements
  *   corporeality, race and biometrics
  *   capitalism, race and incarceration
  *   the prison industrial complex
  *   digital forms of enclosure and surveillance
  *   race, racialisation and geography
  *   climate change, migration and asylum
  *   protest camps and state surveillance

Please note that general submissions on the theme of space, race, and embodiment are welcome. We also invite workshops, creative performance and other community forms of participation.
