Center for African Studies

In the spirit of the late distinguished Africanist scholar, Gwendolen M. Carter, the annual Carter lectures offer the university community and the greater public the perspectives of Africanist scholars on issues of pressing importance to the peoples and societies of Africa.

The topic for this year’s conference is:

“Kongo Atlantic Dialogues: Kongo Culture in Central Africa and in the Americas”
