Check Out Our Interns’ Capstone Projects
Create Caribbean invites you to dive into the brilliant minds of our talented interns as they showcase their groundbreaking capstone projects. They presented these projects for the first time at the Intern Symposium on January 16th.
The capstone projects cover a wide range of topics, including history, tourism and economics. Each project is a unique reflection of the interns' passions and aspirations. Check out our interns’ capstone projects here!
Call for Submission: Journal of Folklore and Education
The 2024 Journal of Folklore and Education seeks submissions that explore “disruption” and “migration” in relation to the process of reimagining home and tradition. They are interested in contributions that situate creativity and cultural production in moments and landscapes of flux and transformation, and how those affected by these forces forge strategies that disrupt established paradigms. Thus, topics such as identity, inclusion and exclusion, memory, transformation, and community also inform this issue.
They are interested in contributions that address, for example:
People’s experiences during and in response to migrations and/or displacements of different sorts (domestic, international, rural-urban, voluntary and forced, in response to climate, for economic reasons, etc.)
Cultural realignment (coalition building, mutual aid, rethinking/rebuilding communities);
Stories or examples of how people disrupt narratives of harm and pathology related to migration with cultural production that represents resilience, agency, transformation, generative practices
Praxis—the work we do—examples of how the work of educators, folklorists, or culture bearers/artists directly intervene in or disrupt conventions, persistent issues, or chronic conditions.
The Journal of Folklore and Education welcomes contributions in many formats, including interviews, multimedia, photo essays, notes (a shorter format report), and lesson plans. Submissions are due March 15, 2024. For more information, go to their website.
