Subject: The Black Atlantic Footballer workshop and masterclass
Dear Colleagues,
Registration is now open for 'The Black Atlantic Footballer' workshop being held at Senate House, London on Thursday 31st May 2018.
This workshop will bring together academics, sports engagement agencies, and groups involved in shaping the contemporary British sports landscape to discuss issues around the themes of representation and mobility in the football industry. Influenced by the work of Paul Gilroy, the event will explore research from across the ‘Black Atlantic’ to draw together conversations across Africa, Europe, and the Americas through focusing on a shared relationship to the Atlantic. This conceptual framing provides scope to critically examine issues of representation and mobility across a range of scales and temporalities.
Confirmed speakers: Prof. David Wood, Dr Aarti Ratna, Dr Gary Armstrong, Dr Colin King and Dr Steve Bradbury
Keynote speaker: Prof. Carmen Rial (Professor of Anthropology, Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina)
