The part-time fellowship will provide the recipient with $50,000 in salary ($40/hour), an office on the Morgan State University Campus, and more. The fellow is expected to work on site at Morgan State University for 25 hours/week during the length of the fellowship, including the Black Queer Everything Gathering, tentatively scheduled for June 16-23, 2024. Eligibility Requirements: BA/BS degree required; MA degree in an interdisciplinary or related field preferred.
