Are you ready to talk? Then you’ll want to take a look at the roundtable discussions that will be offered at Sirens in October.

Roundtables are interactive discussions of a topic led by a moderator, and attendees are encouraged to take an active part in the discussion. Sometimes they are a meeting of the minds; sometimes they’re contentious; sometimes they’re boisterous; sometimes they’re contemplative. They’re always interesting.

Please note that seating in roundtable rooms is very limited to allow everyone in the room the opportunity to participate—once there are 24 attendees and one moderator, the discussion is closed.

Follow this link to find out about the presenters and what they’ll be talking about in these presentations:

The Boobs Tube: The Rebellious Women of The Legend of Korra and Steven Universe

Female Game-Changers

How about Real-Life Rebels, Revolutionaries, and Spies?

Just Your Average Rebel: When Rebellion Means Not Changing Who You Are

Quiet Revolution

Rebelling against the Binary: Gender in Speculative Fiction

Rebellious Reading: Who—Or What—Do You Challenge by Choosing Diverse Books?

Rogue Resources

If you would like to support both Sirens and our presenters, we invite you to sponsor these (and other) presentations. The cost is $35 per presentation. Unfortunately, at this time, we can no longer include sponsors in our conference program book, but we will include your name next to your chosen topic on the accepted programming page and at the conference.
