<b>Conference Description<br>
<br>
</b>ACH is the United States-based constituent organization in the Alliance for Digital Humanities Organizations (ADHO). The ACH 2019 conference, in partnership with Keystone DH, provides a forum for conversations on an expansive definition of digital humanities
in a broad array of subject areas, methods, and communities of practice. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="background:white"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">ACH recognizes that this work is inherently and inextricably sociopolitical, and thus additionally, but not exclusively, welcomes scholarship that emphasizes social justice through the use
of computers and related technologies in the study of humanistic subjects. <o:p>
</o:p></span></p>
<p style="background:white"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">Areas of engagement include but are not limited to:<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p style="background:white"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">We particularly invite proposals on anti-racist, queer, postcolonial and decolonial, indigenous, Black studies, cultural and critical ethnic studies, and intersectional feminist interventions
in digital studies. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="background:white"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">As an organization committed to cross-disciplinary engagement, we welcome interdisciplinary proposals. We also are especially interested in receiving proposals from participants with a range
of expertise and from a variety of roles, including alt-ac positions, employment outside of higher education, and graduate students. We further invite proposals from participants who are newcomers to digital humanities. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p style="background:white"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">We encourage those proposing sessions to consider formats beyond the traditional 20-minute paper panels, such as roundtables, multi-speaker panels, digital posters, lightning talks, installations,
and performances. When proposing a session, we ask that you describe your session type and indicate a preferred time length for the session. Suggestions are below, but we encourage proposers to move beyond them and to think creatively about other possibilities.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="background:white"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p style="background:white"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">Proposals should be between 250-500 words in length and should describe the proposed topic, requested time length, participants, and audience for the session, and should include five keywords.
We suggest 250-word proposals for individual submissions and 500-word proposals for multi-speaker submissions. While proposals should be clearly linked to existing scholarly debates, formal citations are not required except for direct quotation. Submissions
will be evaluated using double-blind peer review, so please omit identifying information, including author name and affiliation, in the proposal.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="background:white"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">While our CFP has been released in English, Spanish, and French, we welcome proposals for contributions in other languages. Proposals will be reviewed in the language of submission. Regardless
of the language of your proposal, please ensure that your five keywords are in English to facilitate program scheduling.

<p style="background:white"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p style="background:white"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">Proposals will be submitted using ConfTool:

<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="background:white"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">Please note that for the purposes of scheduling, we may suggest an alternative length or collaboration between related proposals. While there is no limit on number of submissions, the committee
will not normally schedule more than two presentations from one primary author.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
