On March 20-22, 2025, the Fourteenth Biannual Conference of CAAR, the Collegium for African American Research, titled “Knowledges in Motion: Black Travels, Belonging, and Transformations,” will be hosted by the Department of English and American Studies at Humboldt University Berlin, Germany.
CONFERENCE VENUE: The conference will be held in Humboldt University's main building, Unter den Linden 6, 10117 Berlin. The conference opening and the keynotes will take place in the Senatssaal on the second floor (German count: first floor).
PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION: Berlin's public transportation company BVG has announced that they will go on strike on Wednesday and Thursday (the first day of the conference). This means that the subway, trams, and most buses will not run. The S-Bahn and regional trains will continue to operate (you can reach Humboldt University's main building via the S-Bahn and regional train stop Friedrichstraße). Please plan accordingly. We apologize for any inconvenience.
Please note:
CAAR is looking to elect a new Executive Board (President, Secretary and Treasurer), and to fill most of the seats on the Advisory Board. Please think about possibly becoming (more) active in CAAR and running for one of the positions.
The conference is supported by:
HU International Office
HU Department of English and American Studies
HU Faculty of Language, Literature and Humanities
