The National Park Service aims to award financial assistance to Stephen F. Austin State University for an ethnographic study at Arkansas Post National Monument. The study will focus on the historical involvement of African Americans in the area, aiming to document and provide evidence for their presence from the early historic period through the Fur Trade, Territorial, and Civil War periods. The project will help in understanding the intergenerational continuity of both African American and Euro-American communities, ultimately informing interpretation programs for the public. Applications are not open as the award will be given to the designated university. Closing date for the project is Jul 29, 2019.
