Sapphic Arts and Studies in (and Beyond) the Academy: Nurturing a Nexus of Radical Desire

Scholars and artists have collaborated for decades to bring sexuality and gender into the academy in ways that transforming society, inform law and policy, sustain LGBTQ+ lives, and work for radical futurities of liberation. This roundtable,=-- which will be held at the Northeast Modern Language Association's 2025 conference in Philadelphia, PA in March-- invites artists, activists, and academics with an interest in (re)making and maintaining a place for Sapphic studies and arts in and beyond the academy to come together to share work that demonstrates the importance of explorations, critical examinations, and celebrations of what comes under the heading of "Sapphic" in the past and present.
