The Georgia Historical Society (GHS) invites you to join us in beautiful historic Savannah for two weeks of scholarly study and exchange as we explore two centuries of African-American life and culture in Savannah and Georgia's coastal islands.
Through a combination of course readings, scholarly lectures, site visits, community presentations, guided tours, and research in the GHS archives, you will be engaged in a fascinating scholarly dialogue focused on examining the centrality of place in the African-American experience in Georgia's Lowcountry and the larger Atlantic world. Graduate students and community college faculty are especially encouraged to apply.
