Call for Papers Theme: Challenges of Hate in the 21st Century Type: 7th International Conference on Hate Studies Institution: Center for the Study of Hate, Gonzaga University Community Colleges of Spokane Location: Spokane, WA (USA) – Online Date: 20.–22.4.2023 Deadline: 4.1.2023 __________________________________________________ In this time of political divisiveness, racial inequity, extremism, and climate injustice, the importance of understanding how the processes of dehumanization and othering harm communities and the world in which we live is as critical as ever. The Gonzaga Center for the Study of Hate invites you to consider opportunities to share your research, educational work, community work, creative expression, or other work related to hate and submit a proposal to present at the Seventh International Conference on Hate Studies. The multidisciplinary field of hate studies brings us together for new understandings to address hate in any one or more of its manifestations (e.g. racism, Anti-Semitism, homophobia, religious intolerance, extremism, anti-immigration animus, ableism, white supremacy, etc.). The International Conference on Hate Studies is one of the leading interdisciplinary academic forums on hate and related social problems. The lessons learned and plans which emerge will help educators, researchers, advocates, and others better analyze and combat hatred in its various manifestations to lead to communities being committed to peace, human rights, and justice.
