This project funds the inaugural meeting of a new national research organization ,the Atlanta Network for Race, Ethnicity, and Politics (ANREP), comprised of political and social scientists living in and/or studying issues related to racial politics affecting the Southeastern United States. The purpose of this first meeting is to for attendees to critically evaluate workshop papers addressing theoretically-motivated research questions about the 2020 U.S. Presidential and Congressional elections and to provide professional development support to help attendees ultimately publish their papers. In addition, discussion will focus on institutionalizing the organizational framework and plans for the group. The conference goals align with NSF’s mission to help advance the progress of science and the goal of diversifying the STEM community as it supports research on and by Americans who come from underrepresented racial and ethnic minority groups. The proposed conference and network brings together scholars from Atlanta-area minority serving institutions, including historically Black colleges and minority-serving universities, with faculty from non-MSI research universities, to enhance scholarship, training, and career development in the study of race, ethnicity, and politics. The conference, held at Clark Atlanta University and Emory University in June 2021, uses the 2020 U.S. elections as substantive foci, the conference highlights research on and by African Americans, Hispanics, and Asian Americans. After a national call for papers, the proposed conference showcases 12 papers in four substantive panels, as well as a professional development panel on publishing.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该项目资助一个新的国家研究组织亚特兰大种族、民族和政治网络 (ANREP) 的首次会议，该组织由生活在和/或研究影响美国东南部的种族政治相关问题的政治和社会科学家组成。第一次会议的目的是让与会者批判性地评估研讨会论文，解决有关 2020 年美国总统和国会选举的理论研究问题，并提供专业发展支持，帮助与会者最终发表论文。此外，讨论将集中于使该集团的组织框架和计划制度化。 此次会议的目标与 NSF 帮助推动科学进步的使命以及 STEM 社区多元化的目标相一致，因为它支持针对来自代表性不足的种族和少数民族群体的美国人进行的研究。拟议的会议和网络将来自亚特兰大地区少数族裔服务机构（包括历史悠久的黑人学院和少数族裔服务大学）的学者与非MSI研究型大学的教师聚集在一起，以加强种族、民族和政治研究方面的奖学金、培训和职业发展。该会议于 2021 年 6 月在克拉克亚特兰大大学和埃默里大学举行，以 2020 年美国大选为实质性焦点，会议重点关注非裔美国人、西班牙裔和亚裔美国人以及他们的研究。在全国征集论文之后，拟议的会议在四个实质性小组以及一个出版专业发展小组中展示了 12 篇论文。该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
