REMINDER – CALL FOR MATERIALS ON AFRICAN SEXUALITIES
This is a reminder call for materials for a contemporary Reader on African sexualities, which is being developed and edited by Prof. Sylvia Tamale–outgoing Dean of Law at Makerere University and Coordinator of the Law, Gender and Sexuality Research Project at the Faculty of Law.
This seminal work will be a compilation of diverse populist and academic pieces that either engage with or inform sexualities enacted all over the African continent. We are interested in collecting a range of materials
including (but not limited to) essays, fiction, poetry, web blogs, art, crafts, photographs, film, documentaries, diaries, music, theoretical discussions, empirical papers, academic publications etc, that address and inform African sexualities.
The editor will obtain copyright permission where necessary. Although the main language of the Reader will be English, relevant materials published in French, Portugese, Spanish, Arabic and any African tongue will be translated for inclusion. This Reader aims to be as inclusive of all of Africa as possible.
The deadline for submission is October 30, 2009. All received pieces will be acknowledged.
Thanks to all that have submitted materials so far.
