Dr. Morey is the author of White Philanthropy: Carnegie Corporation’s An American Dilemma and the Making of a White World Order (2021) and Executive Director of the Miami Institute for the Social Sciences. Her work has been published widely, including in Humanity: An International Journal of Human Rights, Humanitarianism, and Development; Law, Culture, and the Humanities; NYU Law Review; The Atlantic; and, HistPhil, a blog on the history of the philanthropic and nonprofit sectors that she co-founded and co-edits. She has a book chapter forthcoming this year in The Oxford Handbook of W.E.B. Du Bois framing Du Bois as an early and deeply engaged critical scholar of U.S. philanthropy’s international funding practices.

In her prior life as a U.S. legal historian, Dr. Morey was assistant professor of history at Clemson University. Increasingly focused on inequities in knowledge production, Maribel’s work at the Miami Institute seeks to center the work of global majority scholars in the social sciences.
