With the sponsorship of the Society for the Humanities, the Department of History invites applications for a two-year Mellon Postdoctoral Fellowship position beginning August 1, 2025. The fellowship carries a stipend of $62,000/year. We seek a scholar with a PhD in History who is also grounded in theoretical and methodological public history approaches, in particular Museum Studies, Historic Preservation, or digital history. This position will involve developing new directions in public history teaching and research, and joining an interdisciplinary group of scholars and students whose projects focus on historic sites, digital media, museums, libraries, archives, and/or local communities. Geographic area and historical era open, but we prefer candidates who focus on climate or energy history, African American women’s history, or LGBTQ+ history in the Americas. The postdoc will teach a lower-level and an upper-level course each year that engage with public history topics and methods (involving, for instance, monuments, museums, oral history, historic preservation, walking tours, historically engaged performance, or documentary film). These courses would emphasize applied forms of historical engagement by undergraduates such as conducting archival research, learning and practicing oral history methods, developing curatorial skills, actively engaging with local and global individuals and communities, and asking theoretical questions about history as a process of knowledge production. The postdoc would play a central role in the Public History Initiative (PHI) and the Critical Inquiry into Values, Imagination, and Culture (CIVIC) initiative, by offering interdisciplinary courses and programming (such as lecture series) relevant to their specific field. Applicants eligible for the Mellon Postdoctoral Fellowship for the 2025-26 and 2026-27 academic years include those who have received the Ph.D. degree after August 1, 2021 and no later than June 30, 2025. Applicants who do not have the Ph.D. in hand at the time of application must include a letter from the committee chair or department stating that the Ph.D. degree will be conferred before the term of the fellowship begins.

Pan-African in scope, the journal publishes research articles, essays, commentaries, book reviews, interviews, and other creative work that utilizes African-centered theories, methodologies, and approaches to not only examine critical issues, but also to present solutions within all areas of Africana Studies, including the humanities, arts, and sciences. It simultaneously provides intellectual space for discourse about community social justice activist work and liberation struggles on the continent and within African world communities. Accepting intellectual and creative work from diverse scholars, activists, writers, and artists who resemble the Editorial Board’s diverse training and scholarship, The Journal of Africana Studies intentionally positions itself as an inclusive and affirming discipline-based African-centered entity.

Africana Psychology critically investigates and interrogates the life-worlds of people of African descent from an African-centered perspective. This special edition seeks articles that address issues of identity, education, health, clinical/counseling, criminal justice, sexuality, sexism, gender, methodology, racism/oppression, religion/spirituality and intellectual history.

Call for Submission:The Journal of Colorism Studies (JOCS) is accepting submissions for a themed issue titled “Exploring the Psychological, Emotional, Physical and Social Impact of Global Colorism.” The theme is aligned with the second Ronald E. Hall Conference on Colorism scheduled for August 22, 2024 and August 23, 2024. Colorism involves distinctions based on skin color (light, medium or dark) and results in the favorable or unfavorable treatment, discrimination, biases, etc. of individuals based on the lightness or darkness of their skin color and can include other phenotypes. With its foundation deeply rooted in white superiority, white supremacy, white privilege, racism, prejudice and stereotypes, colorism is detrimental to the psychological, emotional, physical, and social well-being and is complex in nature (Colorism Project, 2006). Colorism occurs consciously and unconsciously, and acts of colorism can be intentional or unintentional, hence, the “complexity.” Colorism is one of the many issues impacting the global community intraracially and interracially involving racial and ethnic groups in various categories. The impact of this global phenomenon is traumatizing psychologically, emotionally, physically, and socially, and can impact overall well-being. Submissions Accepted Articles, book reviews, unpublished commentaries, case studies, interviews, film/movie reviews, unpublished blogs, and podcasts. Submission/Author Guidelines Submissions will not be considered for publication if they have been published before or if they are under review by another journal or publisher.
