Are you worried about the de facto ghettoization of non-Western philosophy at APA meetings, where there are quite a few non-Western philosophy panels but mostly in the Group Program rather than in the Main Program?
It turns out that the mechanism that allows for this situation also allows for its rectification. Below is a message from Rebecca Copenhaver, secretary-treasurer of the Pacific Division. I’m told that the Eastern Division has a similar mechanism (not sure about the Central).
I am posting the message below on behalf of Yang Jinquan, of the new Confucius Museum. If you have access to or know anyone who has access to an artifact that might find a home in the museum, feel free to contact Mr. Yang.
