In partnership with @howard1867 and sponsored by the @mellonfdn Just Futures Initiative, 'Social Justice at ASALH,' is a cross-organizational, cross-institutional, interdisciplinary initiative that includes fellowships, workshops, and outreach materials on social justice.

Social Justice at ASALH focuses on the community, bringing practical knowledge and theories, learned through the lived experience of activists and oppressed groups, that are often overlooked or discounted inside the academy.
