Daniel, hot dog, I get to meet you!! Congratulations on your paper being accepted - what's the topic?
My topic will be: "Islamophobia and Adoption: Who Are the Civilized?"; I'll be taking a look at the movement of evangelicals and now Muslims who advocate for adoption based on false readings of the Holy Books, and how this is used as a foreign policy battering ram against countries seen as vulnerable to accusations of "backwardness" and thus economic predation. Connecting the economic and political dots, like I usually do (to nobody's amusement)....
Will hopefully see you there!
