And remember to register for the conference and our final pop-up event, a fanfic workshop that's free to attend!
Are you curious about fanfiction? Ever wished you could rewrite a line (or scene, or trilogy)? Are you sure that you could have wrapped up a plot-hole perfectly, if given the chance? Give fanfiction a try!
In this 2.5 hour workshop (with breaks), you’ll have an opportunity to learn about what fanfiction is, how it’s related to the Star Wars universe, and how you can get started writing fanfic of your own.
This pop-up workshop will be the last free online event leading up to this year’s conference, Realizing Resistance Episode III: The Expanding Universe!

This conference aims to bring together scholars from across disciplines to examine the nearly half century span of Star Wars media as cultural texts. We invite scholarly and creative interventions with an explicit focus on themes of resistance and justice.
Happy New Year! If, as you move towards the future, you still want to accomplish your 2022 goal of submitting an abstract to Realizing Resistance III: The Expanding Universe, we've got you covered! The CFP is open until 1/13/23: https://dcsco-op.org/rriii/rriii-2023/
The Digital Cultural Studies Co-operative invites proposals of individual papers, panels, academic posters and infographics, media objects (critical making, comics, video, Twine, or performance), and methodology or other workshops.
The conference will be entirely online and is open to all registered participants so no matter where you are in the Galaxy, you too can be part of our resistance! #RRIII23
