Dr. Prisca Gayles, assistant professor in the Gender, Race & Identity (GRI) and Sociology departments, has been awarded a prestigious National Endowment of the Humanities (NEH) fellowship for 2023-2024 for her ethnographic research on Argentina’s Black social movement.
This fellowship is a major accomplishment and a wonderful recognition of Dr. Gayles’s important, innovative scholarship on Black politics and Black feminisms across the Americas.
This project is one of 204 humanities projects that the NEH is supporting in this funding cycle and one of just 70 fellowships awarded to “support advanced research in the humanities by college and university teachers and independent scholars” — as well as the only awardee in ÁùºÏ±¦µä for this year.
