The article discusses the organization of the Modern Language Association (MLA) Subconference by graduate students at different universities to determine if their peers will accept a shadow conference. The organization was designed as a site to forge relationships between academic and nonacademic activists and propose the use of direct action in home campuses and communities and understanding militant research as a way to transform the financial and power structures of universities.
