New organization

[M. Frye]

There's a new interdisciplinary feminist association called Feminist
Epistemologies, Methodologies, Metaphysics, and Science Studies (FEMMSS)
that is starting up.  It began with women who had been participating in an
NEH summer seminar led by feminist philosopher Nancy Tuana, on
epistemology, that got to focusing on ignorance.  That yielded a conference
on Ethics and Epistemologies of Ignorance, and in the process of these two
engagements, FEMMSS was dreamed up.  I thought that a good deal of work in
linguistics and cognitive linguistics would fit in this venue, so here's
the URL for the announcement for the FEMMSS conference that will be held in
Seattle in November.
