Stories of (In)Equality: Justice and Power Across Space and Time
The Graduate History Association of the University of Massachusetts, Amherst invites proposals for its 17th annual interdisciplinary conference. This year’s conference is entitled “Stories of (In)Equality: Justice and Power Across Space and Time” and will take place virtually over Zoom from April 9-10, 2021.
Amidst a global pandemic and health crisis, anti-Black, Brown, Asian, and Indigenous racism and violence, police brutality, and social uprisings, this conference seeks to bring graduate students together to consider the multifaceted forces that shape struggles over justice and power. Our invocation to consider these developments across both “space and time” invites conference participants to think expansively about the spaces, actors, and narrative threads that constitute these “stories of (in)equality” and their implications for our contemporary contests over justice and power.
