Date and time: Monday, October 25, 2:00-3:00 pm PDT
Location: Virtual (Zoom)
Facilitator: Professor Handel Kashope Wright

Description: In this virtual session, Prof. Handel Kashope Wright will draw on his extensive experience as editor and editorial board member of several book series and refereed journals to indicate what it takes to (not) get published in academic outlets in general and journals in particular. He will provide an outline of types of publications (from book reviews, through review essays to journal articles to book chapters and books) and the politics of whether and when to undertake them and will make a case for graduate students working regularly toward publication. He will focus particularly on refereed journals and the criteria for acceptance and reasons for non-acceptance of essays for publication. Examples and details about what makes for an essay likely or unlikely to be published in specific journals (and hence the dos and don’ts of writing for publication) will be used to concretize the discussion.

Handel Wright is currently serving as Co-Editor of book series (African and Diasporic Cultural Studies, University of Toronto Press); International Editorial Board Member of book series (the University of East London’s Radical Cultural Studies, Rowan & Littlefield; Cardiff University’s Critical Perspectives on Theory, Culture and Politics, Rowan and Littlefield; Critical Childhood and Youth Studies, Lexington Books; Critical Media Literacies and Youth, Sense Publications); Associate Editor of journal Critical Arts; and International journal editorial board member (Cultural Studies; The International Journal of Cultural Studies; The European Journal of Cultural Studies, Postcolonial Directions in Education; Diaspora, Indigenous and Minority Education; Canadian Journal of Education).
