Funded by the Andrew W. Mellon Just Futures initiative, the Black Studies Collaboratory brings together artists, activists, and scholars to amplify the interdisciplinary, political, and world-building work of Black Studies. Organized around the themes of archives, activism and arts, the Black Studies Collaboratory consists of five main programs: the Abolition Democracy Fellows Program, the Global Black Feminisms Summer Lab, the Small Grants Program, the Black Studies Open University, and the Black Futures Retreat.
