The American Studies Association’s Critical Ethnic Studies Committee calls for submissions for the 2024 Minority and Indigenous Graduate Student Travel Grant, for travel to the annual meeting of the American Studies Association. The award will provide travel reimbursement of $500 to an advanced graduate student who is a member of the ASA and plans to attend the 2024 meeting in order to present a paper related to critical ethnic and/or indigenous studies. Graduate students who have no support for convention attendance and are members of an under-represented group are particularly encouraged to apply.

The application should have two parts: 

1. A cover letter of no more than one page that includes a brief autobiographical description, the title and a brief description of the applicant’s paper as well as the session to which it belongs, and confirmation that the applicant will not receive any other financial support from his/her/their institution.
2. A curriculum vitae.

Papers should be submitted electronically by Tuesday, October 1, 2024, to Tala Khanmalek, talazky@gmail.com, co-chair of the committee. Late submissions will not be accepted.
