Key areas the topics will focus on are class representation in pop culture, class issues in academia, pedagogy and class studies, labor unions in contemporary culture and social outreach and activism.

Those interested must submit their proposals by Friday, Dec. 1 to [email protected]. There is no cost to submit or attend this hybrid event.
