Meeting Description:

The Society for the Study of the Indigenous Languages of the Americas (SSILA)
will hold its annual winter meeting on January 21-23, 2022.  SSILA meetings
allow scholars to present on a wide range of topics centered on any aspect of
Indigenous American languages.

Because of the global COVID-19 crisis, the SSILA Executive Committee has
decided that the conference will be held online on a virtual platform,
allowing participants to take part in the meeting without the need to travel. 
The SSILA executive committee is currently exploring all options so that
registration fees can be kept at a minimum.

We are delighted to announce that we will commemorate the 40th anniversary of
SSILA with a number of special events, including presentations by the
following keynote speakers. These events will provide us with the opportunity
to reflect on the founding of the Society, what has been achieved in our field
over the past decades and in what direction our field is headed.

Keynote speakers:
Gladys Camacho Rios (University of Texas at Austin)
Hilaria Cruz (University of Louisville)
Jenny L. Davis (Chickasaw; University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign)


Second Call for Papers: 

SSILA welcomes abstracts for papers that present original research focusing on
the linguistic study of the Indigenous languages of the Americas.  Presenters
must be members of SSILA in order to present. You can join SSILA at:
https://www.ssila.org/en/membership-information. The membership requirement
may be waived for Indigenous community scholars and language practitioners. It
may also be waived for co-authors or for participants in organized sessions
who are from disciplines other than those ordinarily represented by SSILA
(linguistics and linguistic anthropology). Waivers can be requested by
contacting the SSILA Secretary, Mary Linn (secretary at ssila.org).

Any member may submit one single-author abstract and one multi-author abstract
OR two multi-author abstracts.

You are strongly encouraged to state the contribution made by the analysis and
state the social outcomes/impacts/implications of the work (which may be
positive, neutral or negative, immediate or potential). Consideration of the
social outcomes/impacts/implications of the work might focus on the specific
topic under consideration or take into account the broader scope of a project.
Effects might take a while to be felt, and might be nuanced with respect to
who is influenced and how. Implications are likely to relate to the social
significance to the language community, such as the project’s capacity for
developing tools for pedagogy or revitalization, valorizing the language
within a broader social context, or (perhaps at the same time) introducing
points of tension regarding approaches to language teaching. They might also
include bringing a situation regarding a language community’s status to wider
attention, educating the public regarding language endangerment and its
significance, promoting the application of Native ways of knowing in
linguistic research or community-related goals.

Abstract Submission: 
The deadline for receipt of all abstracts is on August 31 at 11:59PM
(Hawaii-Aleutian time).  Abstracts should be submitted electronically, using
the electronic submission website EasyChair. Consult the SSILA website for
detailed instructions (https://www.ssila.org/calls). Also, e-mail or hard-copy
submissions will be accepted if arrangements are made in advance with the
SSILA Program Committee Administrator, Martin Kohlberger
(conferences at ssila.org). Abstracts may be submitted in English, Spanish,
French or Portuguese.
