THROUGH THE PRISM OF RACE AND ETHNICITY:
Re-imagining the Religious History of the American West
-----------------------
Inaugural Conference
The project’s inaugural conference, “Through the Prism of Race and Ethnicity”: Re-imaging the Religious History of the American West,” is scheduled for March 3-4, 2006 at Arizona State University. Generous support for this conference has been provided by ASU’s Institute for Humanities Research, Department of Religious Studies, and Center for the Study of Religion and Conflict.
The primary goal of the conference is to create a community of scholars working in the areas of race, ethnicity, and religion in the West. At the conference, these scholars will initiate new collaborative conversations and help to determine the scope and direction of the project.
The conference will begin at 9:00 a.m. on Friday, March 3, with a panel of senior scholars who will reflect on the state of the scholarship in this area and suggest directions for future research. Friday afternoon and Saturday morning will be devoted to thematically organized paper sessions. Conference events will conclude on Saturday afternoon with project planning conversations.
