Pre-conference Workshop
“Resisting Enslavement”

Scholars are invited to apply for a one-day pre-conference workshop convened by Jennifer L. Morgan to take place at the College of Charleston on Wednesday, June 11, 2025.

“Resisting Enslavement” will allow scholars to pre-circulate and discuss papers, articles, and/or chapters in progress focused on instances of resistance to enslavement in vast Early America, broadly understood. Applicants should plan to provide an abbreviated c.v. along with a one-page summary of the work they intend to discuss. Privilege will be given to junior scholars at the postdoctoral level. (The workshop is limited to those who have already completed a PhD program, including dissertation and defense.)

Applicants to the workshop are invited to also apply to participate in the conference but should submit a separate application for that purpose. Applications to the workshop will be evaluated by a different committee and participation in the workshop does not guarantee or preclude participation in the conference.
