ACIS West 2021 - Community Events Only

The American Conference for Irish Studies (Western Region) will be held at the University of Colorado – Denver from September 23-26, 2021. The theme of the conference is Labor, Immigration, and Class. As we mark 100 years since the Government of Ireland Act and the Partition of the island, we are also witnessing the effects of Brexit on economics, borders, communal memory, and mobility. Our global community is also experiencing a rising consciousness around race, identity, and colonization.
