Call for Papers Theme: Race, Ethnicity, and Place Conference Subtitle: Justice and the City in an Age of Social Division Type: 10th REP Conference 2020 Institution: Maryland Historical Society Location: Baltimore, MD (USA) Date: 21.–24.10.2020 Deadline: 1.7.2020 __________________________________________________ For over seventeen years, the Race, Ethnicity, and Place (REP) Conference has brought together diverse groups of scholars to facilitate research on race and ethnicity and has provided a critical gathering place of support and collaboration for underrepresented scholars. The REP Conference provides important opportunities for faculty, professionals, and graduate students to engage in discussions of timely and critical issues regarding race and ethnicity in multiple places and spatial contexts worldwide. Under the current political climate of fear and exclusion, undergirded by racism, xenophobia, and white supremacy, it is critical that scholars from a broad range of perspectives develop transformative research to foster inclusive policy, advocacy, and action. The 2020 X REP Conference in Baltimore aims to create common ground across multiple ways of studying race and ethnicity and to broaden participation of scholars in geography and related social and spatial sciences whose research furthers scholarship relating to race, ethnicity, and place. The theme of the 2020 REP conference, Justice and the City in an Age of Social Division, ties in strongly with current and ongoing struggles for civil and human rights in Baltimore. We call for original papers and panel submissions that further our understanding of social, environmental, and community justice issues that intersect with race, ethnicity, and diversity.
