The History Department<https://history.ucsc.edu/> at the University of California, Santa Cruz (UCSC) invites applications for an Assistant Professor in African American history. We seek applications from outstanding candidates whose research and teaching interests focus on the 19th and/or 20th centuries. We expect that the person hired for this position would have research interests focused on the United States and be able to offer some United States-focused courses (including at least one half of the African American history survey). Given the department’s developing focus on empire and transnational history, we welcome applications from scholars whose teaching and research address other sites in the African diaspora. Ideally, the scholar’s research and teaching interests will intersect with one or more of other current department strengths such as women’s, gender and sexuality history; history of science and medicine; environmental history; and public history. Potential areas of research specialty include, but are not limited to, social and community-based movements; Black feminist and queer movements; slavery and/or emancipation; Black abolitionism and internationalism; Black indigeneity and Black/indigenous relations; immigration to the US from Africa, the Caribbean, and Central and South America; diasporic cultural and media production; and the development of African American expatriate communities. The successful candidate will likely have opportunities to offer courses and otherwise participate in UC Santa Cruz’s Critical Race and Ethnic Studies Department and the Black Studies minor.
