[With apologies for cross-posting, please circulate widely.] Dear all, On May 15th the Women Writers Project will be hosting a symposium on Antiracist Markup Practices. This event will be a fully virtual half-day symposium taking place between 12:00pm–4:00pm (Eastern). The symposium will investigate the implications of social justice frameworks for text encoding theory and practice. The focus of this event will be on text encoding with TEI and XML, but we want to ensure the discussions are generative for anyone with an interest in antiracist digital cultural heritage work. To that end, we are holding an optional orientation session at 12–12:45pm. Following a break, we will have presentations and discussion from 1–4pm. We are honored to announce that Clayton McCarl<https://webapps.unf.edu/faculty/bio/N00693512>, Mary Chapman<https://english.ubc.ca/profile/mary-chapman/>, Sydney Lines<https://publichumanities.ubc.ca/sydney-lines/>, Joey Takeda<https://winnifredeatonarchive.org/JT1.html>, Brook Danielle Lillehaugen<https://www.haverford.edu/users/blilleha>, Xóchitl M.
