Even in the context of this deeply difficult moment, we are pleased to present sx salon 33, a special issue entitled "Literature and the Sir George Williams University Protest," coedited by Ronald Cummings and Nalini Mohabir. The issue is the fruit of the Protests and Pedagogy conference convened at Concordia University in February 2019 to commemorate and reflect on the fiftieth anniversary of the Sir George Williams University protest (January-February 1969). Cummings and Mohabir were part of the organizing team for the conference; I thank them for entrusting to sx salon this wonderful collection of critical and creative reflections on that historic event and its reverberations. The section is accompanied by our usual range of thoughtful book reviews and exciting new Caribbean creative writing. I hope that the work of these thinkers and artists will serve to comfort, challenge and inspire us all as we navigate these perilous times. Stay safe.
