Cannella 4 General information Welcome from the Director The University of Illinois, the College of Media, the International Center for Qualitative Inquiry, the Institute of Communications Research and the Depart- ment of Media and Cinema Studies welcome you to the Seventh International Congress of Qualitative Inquiry. Over 1900 people from more than 67 nations submitted paper, poster and session proposals; more than 1100 persons have registered for the congress. There are 21 pre-conference workshops. More than 1200 papers will be presented in over 270 sessions. Six Pre-Congress Days—A Day in Spanish and Portuguese, A Day in Turkish, A Day in Qualitative Health- care, A Day in Psychology, A Day in Social Work, and Indigenous Qualitative Inquiry—were held on May 18. The theme of the 2011 Congress is “Qualitative Inquiry and the Politics of Advo- cacy.” The 2011 Congress will offer scholars the opportunity to debate these issues, to foreground the politics of advocacy, pro and con, to form coalitions, to engage in debate on how qualitative research can be used to advance the causes of social justice, while addressing racial, ethnic, gender and environmental dis- parities in education, welfare and healthcare. Sessions will take up such topics as: the politics of advocacy; value-free inquiry; partisanship, bias; the politics of evidence; alternatives to evidence-based models; multiple and mixed-methods; public policy discourse; indigenous research ethics; decolonizing inquiry. Contributors are invited to experiment with traditional and new methodologies, with new presentational formats (ethnodrama, performance, poetry, autoethnography, fiction). Such work will offer guidelines and exemplars concerning advocacy, inquiry and social justice concerns. Scholars from around the world have accepted the challenge to gather together in common purpose to collectively imagine creative and critical responses to a global community in crisis. The Seventh International Congress offers us an opportunity to share our experiences, problems and hopes concerning the con- duct of critical qualitative inquiry in this time of global uncertainty. The International Association of Qualitative Inquiry (IAQI) was launched in 2005 at the First Congress. Seven years later this new association has a News- letter, over 4000 members, a global network of collaborating sites, and its own international journal, the International Review of Qualitative Research and an annual post-congress book series with Left Coast Press Thank you for participat- ing in this truly international project.

  • Nuyorican Cinema, the Cinema of the Puerto Rican Diaspora, to Be Focus of Discussion on Identity, Community, and Aesthetics
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE NUYORICAN CINEMA, THE CINEMA OF THE PUERTO RICAN DIASPORA, TO BE FOCUS OF DISCUSSION ON IDENTITY, COMMUNITY, AND AESTHETICS Friday, March 4, 2016 at Museum of the Moving Image Astoria, Queens, New York, February 22, 2016—Museum of the Moving Image will present Nuyorican Cinema: Framing Identities, a forum for exploring the cinema of the Puerto Rican diaspora, as part of the ongoing series Changing the Picture, sponsored by Time Warner Inc. The event, on Friday, March 4, 2016, at 7:30 p.m., will feature a panel discussion with filmmakers, content creators, and curators including Vagabond Alexander Beaumont, Sonia González-Martinez, Cynthia López (former commissioner of NYC Mayor’s Office of Media and Entertainment), Frances Negrón- Muntaner, and Luis Antonio Ramos, and moderated by Edwin Pagán, who organized the program. Interspersed with video clips from films such as Hangin’ with the Homeboys, Short Eyes, Empire, Los Sures, and Bricando El Charco (Jumping the Pond), the panel will address the contributions of New York-born Puerto Ricans to the film and entertainment industry, from past to present. Admission is free; reservations are being taken on the program’s webpage (movingimage.us/NuyoricanCinema). The scope of the discussion will cover the historical landscape of filmmakers, writers, and actors from the Lower East Side, the South Bronx, Spanish Harlem (a.k.a. “El Barrio”), and from the south side of Williamsburg, Brooklyn (“Los Sures”) who have tackled sociological and political challenges in their work, and how these struggles have helped to create a distinct Nuyorican aesthetic. The discussion will also address the inherent lack of representation and negative portrayals of Puerto Ricans in entertainment, as well as the duality of identity and political ramifications that Nuyorican mediamakers encounter given the tumultuous history between the United States and Puerto Rico, and how a new generation of New York “Boricuas” is changing the face of the industry.
