Inspired by the cultural landscape of New Mexico and the upcoming 2020 U.S. presidential elections, IA鈥檚 20th Anniversary National Gathering in October will consider how 鈥渨e define, design, and foster belonging in our home communities and as a nation state. With belonging, indigeneity, and migration serving as framing concepts, IA invites proposals that advance public scholarship, dialogue, collaboration, research, programs, and advocacy on realizing an America that, as in Langston Hughes鈥 mighty dream, is the land it must be 鈥 a place of opportunity and equality for all. The gathering will explore such questions as:
鈼 _How do our diverse relationships to land, displacement, and migration inform and interact with the ways we envision place and belonging 鈥 culturally, socially, politically, economically, spiritually, ecologically, and agriculturally?
鈼 _How may Indigenous, traditional, cross-border, and community-based ways of knowing be used to shift how belonging is defined and designed, and who participates in this process?
