Dear LSA Community:

Greetings! Some updates on our activities.



1)      *LSA Lifetime Membership *

Carli Coetzee, editor of the Journal of African Cultural Studies, is now
LSA=E2=80=99s fourth Life Member. Coetzee has attended every edition of the=
 LSA
Conference held at the University of Lagos since 2017. She writes the
British Academy grant proposal that funds the conference, facilitates
preconference seminar on academic journal publishing and commits countless
hours in identifying promising papers and meeting with prospective authors.
Coetzee has dedicated her career to increasing the visibility of
Africa-based scholars in credible international journals. Her deep thought
about rigor, ethical questions, and politics of production of knowledge in
Africa is clearly articulated in her 2018 keynote lecture =E2=80=9CUnsettli=
ng the
air-conditioned room=E2=80=9D at the African Literature Association Confere=
nce.



In addition to publishing Nigeria-based LSA members (Jonah Uyieh and
Elizabeth Olayiwola) who presented at our annual conference, she is
presently working with Rosemary Popoola, Fadekemi Olawoye, Patrick
Chukwudike Okpalaeke, and Folakemi Ogbungbe) to get their works published
in her journal. Her contribution has helped the LSA to achieve one of its
missions to increase the intellectual voice of Nigeria-based scholars in
global knowledge production. Each year, she chairs and organizes panels,
while also facilitating the publication of review of books launched at the
LSA Conference in her journal. Her work epitomizes the perfect synergy that
must exist between professional associations and journal editing.



Coetzee is a scholar of African literature. She is the author of "Written
under the Skin: Blood and Intergenerational Memory in South Africa" (James
Currey, 2019) and co-editor (with Moradewun Adejunmobi) of the "Routledge
Handbook of African Literature" (2019), among other works.



Lifetime membership carries a one-time payment of $600. Instruction for
membership payment is available here:

2)      *Obituary: Adebayo Lawal (1948-2020)*

The LSA regrets the passing of member Adebayo Lawal (University of Lagos).
Lawal was a professor of Nigerian economic and financial history. His
signature publications include articles on street trading, markets, fiscal
policy, and commerce in Lagos. At LSA 2019, he presented a paper on
small-scale entrepreneurs in colonial Nigeria. He was one of the honorees
of a special panel on the scholarship of University of Lagos professors at
LSA 2017. The paper presented in his honor by Edmund Chilaka "Writing the
City: A Review of the Works of Professor A. A. Lawal" underscores his
contributions to Lagos economic history.



Lawal received his PhD from the University of Lagos in 1980 with a thesis
"The History of Financial Administration in Nigeria, 1900-1945." He held a
Senior Fulbright Fellowship at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and was
a Rockefeller Research Scholar at the University of the Western Cape. He
was Dean of Faculty of Arts and Head of the Department of History and
Strategic Studies at the University of Lagos at different times.



Lawal was generous with his ideas. We will miss his critical feedback to
paper presenters at our conference. Our thoughts and prayers are with his
friends and family.



3)      *Technology Gift for the LSA*

The LSA is grateful to the Tamar Golan Africa Center at the Ben Gurion
University of the Negev for a gift of two projectors to aid our annual
conference. We are indebted to director Lynn Schler, a member in perfect
standing, for facilitating this.



Schler's support for the LSA is inspiring. She sits on the LSA awards
committee and serves as mentor in our mentoring program for women graduate
students in Nigeria. In addition to presenting papers at LSA 2017 and 2019,
she was a discussant in our panel at the African Studies Association
Meeting (Boston 2019). Schler is co-organizing two panels on the Eko
Atlantic project and Nigeria in the 1960s at LSA 2020. Her numerous
publications include *Nation on Board: Becoming Nigerian at Sea* (Ohio
University Press, 2016).



4)      *Cash Donation to the LSA*

The LSA is grateful to member Olatoun Gabi-Williams (Borders Literature for
all Nations) for her donation of N50,000 ($150). Gabi-Williams helped chair
a panel on literature at LSA 2019. She is a radio and TV host whose work
focuses on advocacy, education, and literacy. She has interviewed noted
writers and scholars and provided significant visibility for writings from
across the African continent.

You can learn about Gabi-Williams and her work here:

5)      *LSA Panels at the African Studies Association of the United States
Conference (Nov. 19-21, Washington DC)*

We have submitted proposals for LSA panels at the ASA. We should know the
outcome of our 7 proposals by June.

-----

1) Labor, Work, and Livelihood in 21st century Lagos

2) A New Course in Colonial Lagos History

3) Medicine, Health, and Wellness in Nigeria (Part I)

4) Medicine, Health, and Wellness in Nigeria (Part II)

5) African Popular Culture and Musicality

6) Nigerian Societies in Transition

7) Roundtable: Conducting Research in Nigeria: Reflections on Archive and
Fieldwork Experience



6)      *LSA Panels at the African Studies Association of the United
Kingdom (ASAUK) Cardiff, Sept. 8-11, 2020*

The ASAUK Conference scheduled for September is canceled due to COVID-19
and anticipated disruption to travel between Africa, the USA, and the U.K.
into Autumn 2020.



Sadly, our Lagos Studies Association stream at ASAUK, featuring many
exciting papers, will therefore not go ahead.
