SALSA is back y’all! We are excited to announce that after three years of COVID-19 related cancellations, the Symposium About Language and Society in Austin will be taking place on January 19 & 20, 2024. With a new home in Linguistic Anthropology, the organizing committee looks forward to welcoming scholars on language and society back to Austin for an engaging conference and hopefully even more engaging conversation. The Call for Papers will be live starting in mid-September, with papers accepted through November 1, 2023.
This year’s keynote speaker will be Dr. Tulio Bermúdez Mejía (University of Chicago), who will be presenting their work on Speech play in trans and queer Latinx communities. As a UT Austin PhD alumnus and a former SALSA Organizing Committee member, we are especially excited to welcome Dr. Bermúdez Mejía back!
We look forward to seeing y’all in Austin!
