This was forwarded to me by Hasana Sharp.  Some of you might know her 
excellent paper 'Is it simple to be a feminist in philosophy?' that 
appeared in Rethinking Marxism a few years ago.  Please forward it on 
to anyone you think might be interested.

> philosophy, but we absolutely encourage creative, ambitious, 
> non-traditional projects as well as good, rigorous analyses grounded 
> in the history of philosophy. We have many forums to showcase our 
> work, and they seem to be multiplying. We may present at the American 
> Sociological Association, we are working with the California 
> Roundtable on Race, there is a book series associated with us, and 
> possibly an annual guest issue in International Studies in Philosophy. 
> This is where you come in: Send us something great and we will be 
> thrilled. Also, send us ideas for future CFP's that may fit your 
> projects and envelope exigent issues in social & political philosophy 
> today. 
>  
> So, submit papers and join to become a voting member. See CFP's for
