[Linganth] CfP--Invisibility themed issue of Anthropology News

[Sarah Muir]

Dear colleagues,

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

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

Anthropology News invites submissions on the theme of invisibility. We are looking for stories about the concealed, the ethereal, the ghostly—the things unnoticed (or obscured) that shape our lives. Think unseen labor, subtle evolutionary forces, hidden architectures of mobility, or ciphers illegible to outsiders.
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 invisibility, 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 June 1, 2025 (with anticipated publication by August 31, 2025). 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 signal/noise might be a good fit.

Thanks for your consideration!
Courtney and Sarah
