Archives and Resistance: A Virtual Symposium on Digital Preservation and Publication in the Context of African, African American, and Diaspora Studies

Call for Proposals

We invite proposals for a virtual symposium on February 19–20, 2027, focused on archival preservation, digital publication, and community collaboration in projects that relate to African, African American, and Diaspora studies. We seek proposals for individual 15-minute presentations or panels consisting of 3–4 presentations (15 minutes each) that focus on ways that researchers, archivists, students, community members, and others are using digital tools and methodologies to recover archival materials and make them available and accessible to expand our understanding of the past and reclaim and promote histories that have been overlooked, suppressed, or erased. Through this event, we hope to highlight innovative work being carried out in the context of African, African American, and Diaspora Studies, and to create opportunities for scholars to connect and build community. This symposium is co-sponsored by the Association for Documentary Editing, the Society for Textual Scholarship, Mapping the Black Digital and Public Humanities, African American Digital & Experimental Humanities (AADHum), and eLaboratories.

Submission information:

  *   For individual presentations: please submit a title and abstract (250 words max.) and a short bio (2–3 sentences) for each presenter.
  *   For panel presentations: please submit a panel title and description (150–250 words), a title and abstract for each presentation (250 words max.) and a short bio (2–3 sentences) for each presenter.

All proposals should be submitted by November 20, 2026, by completing this survey<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://survey.unf.edu/jfe/form/SV_9oBbrVjOeL5xhLo__;!!Dq0X2DkFhyF93HkjWTBQKhk!QpEwexz9kDssxEEZtdDH43CJ9BAgB03RoC2aZegy4dJx6s5_fTtjVz2iMhMM5lB91TcvdtjWbFDRMhi6fty1AViIJeqNGhK4-_xlN1g8xIRA$>.
