Judith Weisenfeld, Agate Brown and George L. Collord Professor of Religion, has been awarded a $50,400 fellowship from the National Endowment for the Humanities for the project “Psychiatry, Race, and African American Religion in the Late 19th and Early 20th Centuries.” Weisenfeld received a fellowship from the NEH in 2010. That grant resulted in the publication of New World A-Coming: Black Religion and Racial Identity during the Great Migration (NYU Press, 2016), which won the 2017 Albert J. Raboteau Prize for the Best Book in Africana Religions, awarded by the Journal of Africana Religions.

Created in 1965 as an independent federal agency, the National Endowment for the Humanities supports research and learning in history, literature, philosophy, and other areas of the humanities by funding selected, peer-reviewed proposals from around the nation. Additional information about the National Endowment for the Humanities and its grant programs is available at: www.neh.gov.
