[Linganth] Seeking pitches for SLA column in Anthropology News on migration

[Handman, Courtney]

Dear colleagues,

We are seeking articles for the first 2025 Society for Linguistic Anthropology section news column of Anthropology News.

The journal is now published exclusively online and is organized thematically. The upcoming theme is migration.

Anthropology News invites submissions on the theme of migration. We are looking for stories about how people, animals, and things, both tangible and intangible, move or are moved, are guided or routed, are started or stopped. These can be stories about borders, citizenship, language, identity, kinship, commodities, or places or environments, local or transnational.

Anthropology News publishes pieces that are legible to a broad audience within and beyond the discipline. Pieces can be either stories or photo essays:

  *   Stories—short-form exploration of an interesting topic with detail and depth, up to 1600 words
  *   Photo essays—s​ix to eight high-quality, visually compelling images + up to 750 words of introductory text
If you have an idea that brings a linguistic anthropological perspective to the theme of migration, please contact the SLA column co-editors, Courtney Handman (chandman at austin.utexas.edu<mailto:chandman at austin.utexas.edu>) and Sarah Muir (smuir at ccny.cuny.edu<mailto:smuir at ccny.cuny.edu>). Anthropology News is able to publish only one SLA piece per theme, and the deadline for initial editorial review is January 1, 2024 (with anticipated publication by March 31, 2024). We encourage submissions from both students and faculty. We provide strong editorial support as well as quick turn-around from submission to publication. Reach out to us to see if your idea for a story or photo essay on migration might be a good fit.

Thanks for your consideration!
Courtney and Sarah

The University of Texas at Austin resides on what were historically the traditional territories of Indigenous Peoples who were dispossessed of their homelands. I recognize and value the Alabama-Coushatta, Caddo, Carrizo/Comecrudo, Coahuiltecan, Comanche, Kickapoo, Lipan Apache, Tonkawa, Ysleta Del Sur Pueblo, and other American Indian and Indigenous peoples and communities who have been or have become a part of the lands now known as Texas.
