🚨🚨 The deadline for submissions has been extended until August 31st 🚨🚨
To reiterate: we are particularly interested in proposals from scholars outside Euro-American academia, and topics that bring to the fore issues, perspectives, and methods that have been underrepresented

Such a great day as we unveiled the Ida B Wells monument in Chicago. This Black woman journalist told the truth no matter how much power lined up against her, so, it is cosmically fitting that this happened on THIS day.
