Contributors wanted (race, social justice) | $2,500 per article

COMPANY/PUBLICATION: GIBBS SMITH EDUCATION

Deadline: 20 December 2022

Bart King, Editor at Gibbs Smith Education, is looking for contributors:

Gibbs Smith Education is now seeking contributors to a forthcoming series on Ethnic Studies for high school students. (Please note that this project is separate from the recently announced series on Latino/Caribbean Studies.)

The Ethnic Studies topics will likely fall under the following general themes:

• Unit 1: Defining Race and Ethnic Studies
• Unit 2: Indigenous Studies
• Unit 3: Black Studies
• Unit 4: Latino Studies
• Unit 5: AAPI Studies
• Unit 6: Race and Ethnicity Today

We are particularly interested in hearing from people with backgrounds in Social Justice and/or Ethnic Studies. Letters of interest are also welcome from graduate students, post-doctoral students, professors, K-12 educators, and public history professionals. Strong writing skills and an ability to meet deadlines are essential, as are reliable research skills.

Applicants will be asked to respond to a short writing prompt beforehand. (NOTE: Those who already applied for the Latino/Caribbean Studies project do not need to submit a writing sample.)

The deadline for signing on to the project is December 20, 2022.

Requested pieces for accepted writers will be as long as approximately 12,500 total words per submission. Once a topic has been assigned, contributors will have approximately a month to write sections. Each contributor will be paid per submission.

Interested contributors should contact Bart King: bart.king@gibbs-smith.com
