Few works in American history are as groundbreaking as W.E.B. Du Bois’s Black Reconstruction in America, first published in 1935. In the 90 years since its publication, the book changed the mainstream interpretation of the Reconstruction era in American history first slowly, as most historians were still wedded to the Dunning School (named after William Archibald Dunning of Columbia University), and then rapidly in the 1960s, 70s, and 80s, as the triumphs of the Civil Rights and Black Power movements forced a reckoning with how American historians wrote and researched Reconstruction. In the 21st century, Black Reconstruction in America has become a tome cited widely by academics and activists alike.

On the occasion of the 90th anniversary of the book, we encourage scholars to grapple with the significance and continued relevance of Du Bois’s Black Reconstruction in America. We especially welcome submissions that grapple with the intersections of race, gender, class and nationality. Writers are also welcome to submit essays on other general topics related to the period of Reconstruction. Topics include (but are not limited to) the following:

Gender in Black Reconstruction in America

Intellectual history of Black Americans during Reconstruction

International (and transnational) dimensions of Reconstruction

The impact of Reconstruction on Black intellectuals in the United States

Public memory and Reconstruction
