Call for Chapters
Hanneke Stuit, Jennifer Turner and Julienne Weegels have been invited by Duke University Press to submit a proposal for an edited collection on carcerality in a globalised world for their “Global Insecurities” book series.
We are organizing a panel on multi-generational black migration, carcerality, and interstate policing in the early twentieth century for the 2019 ASALH Conference in Charleston, SC (October 2-6). We are looking for one more panelist and a commentator.
Our panel at the October 5-7, 2018 annual conference for the Association for the Study of African American Life and History (ASALH) will investigate the many facets of the late 1970s and 1980s "wars": on drugs, poverty, and abortion. These "wars" disproportioantely affected Black women and Black families. The intellectual and activist labor of international reproductive justice advocates Loretta Ross and Nkenge Touré will be at the center of our discussion.
