SUMMARY:2015 IRLE Annual Conference
DESCRIPTION:Join us as we present the UCLA Institute for Research and Employment’s 2015 conference on Labor\, Entertainment\, & Sports: An Intersectional and Interdisciplinary Inquiry.  The conference will take place at Crowne Plaza Beverly Hills Hotel in Los Angeles\, CA on Friday and Saturday\, April 17-18\, 2015.   \nThe objective of the conference is to help build intellectual bridges between scholars taking critical and intersectional approaches to labor\, organized labor\, and industry professionals and practitioners. Panelists will discuss current labor and employment issues in the fields of sports and entertainment\, and highlight the importance of racial/ethnic\, gender/sexual orientation\, and class/labor analyses of labor and employment issues in these industries.  Panels will address gender\, racial\, and sexual orientation representation and equity; the labor of student athletes; global and transnational issues; unions\, collective bargaining and labor disputes; health and safety issues; economic security and working conditions; innovative entrepreneurship; artist/athlete rights and representation; and current labor and employment issues in the industries. \nThe conference will culminate with an actors’ roundtable\, featuring actors/filmmakers-workers discussing: the relationship between race/intersectional identity\, labor\, and the entertainment industry; the inclusion of diverse groups in the industry’s workforce\, including lead roles\, writing\, directing\, producing\, and talent representation; worker/actor experiences in the workplace/labor market; the identification of best practices for increasing opportunities for underrepresented groups in industry’s workforce; and the broader implications of a diverse workforce in the industry.
