The Black Metropolis Research Consortium, has launched a search for the next cohort for our 2023 Summer Short-Term Fellowship Program. Our program is a one-month, Chicago-based, research fellowship that aims to provide an opportunity for scholars, artists, writers, and public historians who are committed to and currently engaged in research that brings to the forefront African American history, culture, and experiences. During their stay in Chicago, fellows will draw on the rich archival collections of our BMRC member institutions. The new, original research and art developed through this program are significant as it illuminates Chicago’s national and international importance to African American history.
