The Yale Center for the Study of Race, Indigeneity and Transnational Migration (RITM) managed the funded graduate students from Yale that participated in the 2022 PRAC summer internship at the Archivo General de Puerto Rico. The collaboration was facilitated by Yale Professors Ana Ramos Zayas (Anthropology, RITM and American Studies) and Anne Eller (History).
The RITM s a university-wide, interdisciplinary academic research center. The Director of the RITM Center is Stephen Pitti, Professor of History, American Studies, and Ethnicity, Race, & Migration. The mission of RITM is to advance rigorous, innovative research and teaching on key topics of historical and contemporary importance. Building upon Yale’s longstanding strengths, RITM fosters intellectual exchanges that cross institutional, disciplinary, and geographic borders; enrich and challenge academic fields; and foreground perspectives often underrepresented in university and policy circles. Through research, teaching, and programming, the Center deepens and transforms scholarship, supports undergraduate and graduate education, and engages local and global audiences.
