 Images from the Holsinger Studio Collection Special Collections Digital Center, University of Virginia Library Summer Seminar in African American Studies Over the past three years, the Carter G. Woodson Institute for African-American and African Studies at the University of Virginia has invited some 35 scholars from colleges, universities, and public history sites throughout the Chesapeake Region -- Delaware, Maryland, the District of Columbia, Virginia, and North Carolina -- to participate in a Ford Foundation-funded summer seminar devoted to the "rethinking" of African American Studies. This year, we are hosting a two-day reunion of alumni from previous seminars to coincide with the opening of the fourth and final seminar, "Building an African-American Digital History Archive: A Workshop for Principal Investigators and Project Teams." Funded by a generous grant from the Ford Foundation. |
