The Wesley-Logan Prize in African diaspora history is jointly administered by the American Historical Association and the Association for the Study of African American Life & History. The prize is awarded annually for an outstanding book in African diaspora history. The prize is offered for a book on some aspect of the history of the dispersion, settlement and adjustment, and/or return of peoples originally from Africa. Eligible for consideration are books in any chronological period and any geographical location. Only books of high scholarly and literary merit will be considered. Books with a copyright of 2025 are eligible for the 2026 award. Nomination submissions may be made by an author or by a publisher. Publishers may submit as many entries as they wish. One copy of each entry must be sent to each committee member and clearly labeled "Wesley-Logan Prize Entry." Print copies are preferred unless otherwise indicated.
