On 18 and 19 April 2025, a group of scholars met at Tulane University’s Roger Thayer Stone Center for Latin American Studies in New Orleans to celebrate the work and lives of Richard and Sally Price. There was much to celebrate: the Prices’ more than five decades of scholarly publications and activism on behalf of the Saamaka Maroons of Suriname; their huge corpus of work spanning the fields of anthropology, history, art history, museum studies, and more; their decades of mentorship of students and junior colleagues; many decades of service as book review editors for the premier Caribbean studies journal New West Indian Guide. Some twenty participants offered equally wide-ranging tributes, some in a scholarly register and others more personal, but all in recognition of one of academia’s greatest and most fruitful pairings.
Rich and Sally: we salute you!
