U.S. Catholic Historian
Future Issue:
Native Americans
For forty years the U.S. Catholic Historian has published theme-based issues relevant to the history of American Catholicism. An upcoming issue will address the theme of Native Americans and U.S. Catholicism.
Contributions could include, but are not limited to, the following:
- European-Native interactions, including religious and cultural exchanges through the mission system.
- Evangelization efforts involving linguistic and cultural accommodation (i.e., indigenous language prayer books, illustrations and catechetical “ladders,” etc.).
- Catholic-sponsored day schools and boarding schools for Native Americans.
- Catholic interaction with Native peoples and the U.S. government through the reservation system.
- Recent efforts at memory and reconciliation for Catholic efforts to “civilize” and efface Native cultures and practices.
Scholars considering a submission are asked to contact the editor, Fr. David Endres at DEndres@mtsm.org before preparing a contribution. Approximate length is 7,000-10,000 words. We ask for submissions by February 1, 2023 and look forward to hearing from potential contributors.

Editor, U.S. Catholic Historian
