Location Oregon, United States Subject Fields African History / Studies Dear Africanist Historians & Scholars, You are cordially invited to submit a proposal for the 6th Rocky Mountain Workshop on African History, to be held in beautiful Portland, Oregon, September 12-13, 2025. This is the second call for papers, panels, and discussants for the Rocky Mountain Workshop, which is designed to provide an intensive and critical discussion of pre-circulated papers on any aspect of African history. Papers with historical dimensions but originating from other disciplines, such as anthropology or political science, are welcome. The Rocky Mountain Workshop is held annually at rotating institutions in the western United States in September or October. In September 2025 and September 2026 it will be held in Portland, Oregon. Over the course of two days, the meeting will provide Africanist historians with diverse backgrounds and research interests with the opportunity to present works in progress and receive both substantial commentary and supportive discussion from colleagues in a workshop atmosphere. Although anyone is welcome to present, the organizing committee especially encourages the presentation of unpublished research from Africanist historians based in the Western United States (Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming). We envision that this workshop will become a fixture for this diffuse community of Africanist scholars, and serve to strengthen the exchange of ideas among this group.Link: https://networks.h-net.org/group/announcements/20066029/cfp-rocky-mountain-workshop-african-history-portland-or-12-13-sep-2025
