Mickell Carter named monthly contributor for Black Perspectives

Mickell Carter, a doctoral candidate in the Department of History, has been named a monthly contributor to the Association of African American Intellectual History Society's award-winning blog, Black Perspectives. As a contributor, she will help to further enhance the content on the blog and aid in its ongoing effort to expand the boundaries of Black intellectual history.

Carter's research interests include Black internationalism, 20th-century social movements and the intersections between politics and culture.

Carter is also a Graduate Fellow and Research Assistant where she interviews Bloody Sunday Foot Soldiers and documents their experiences. She has written for a number of venues, including AAIHS’s Black Perspectives, Alabama Prison Arts + Education Project’s Warbler newsletter, American Historical Association’s Perspectives, and the Washington Post.
