Welcome

Welcome to Mapping the Black Digital and Public Humanities, an interactive and searchable map of digital and public humanities projects related to Black history & culture. The goals of this project are threefold: 

• to help people find digital and public projects about Black history and culture by topic, type, location, contributors, and more.
• to make it easier to see and build connections or networks across similar projects.
• to enable deeper analyses of the Black Digital Humanities and Black Public Humanities as fields, including locating gaps and identifying potential interventions for growth.

This project arose out of a desire to make Black digital and public humanities projects more visible to other practitioners and the public.
