The Association for the Study of African American Life and History is soliciting papers for its 94th Annual Conference. The conference theme recognizes and celebrates the struggles of Black people in the Americas to win the rights of full citizenship. With our theme, the “Quest for Black Citizenship in the Americas” we also recognize the 100th Anniversary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, the NAACP. Please click here to download the Call for Papers.
ASALH invites scholars from all disciplines to present research on African and African American life, history, thought, and culture from all parts of the Diaspora. Individual papers are welcome; however, multi-paper panels are preferred. As contemporary landscapes shift in national and international politics, we look forward to these important and necessary discussions about complex issues of citizenship–past, present, and future–for people of African descent.
The deadline for submissions is April 30, 2009, and ALL presenters must be members of ASALH on or before August 1, 2009 and registered for the conference.
We look forward to seeing you in Cincinnati!
Sincerely,
Sylvia Y. Cyrus Stephanie Y. Evans
