AAADS PhD student Madison Clark received a Rose Library Short‐Term Award Fellowship from Emory University in Atlanta to undertake research on “Exploring the Effects of the Confederados,” her dissertation project. The Confederados were Confederates who, after the Civil War, fled to Brazil where slavery was still being practiced. Madison is investigating how their presence shaped racial identity and landscape in Brazil. Such fellowships are designed to raise the profile of the Rose Library’s African American Collections.
