The Association for the Study of African American Life and History celebrates 97 years today! |
On
September 9, 1915 Carter G. Woodson, founded the Association for the
Study of Negro Life and History now the Association for the Study of
African American Life and History.
Today we pause to
reflect on the work and commitment it took to create and maintain this
institution. Woodson and his colleagues had a vision and mission to
provide the world with scholarly research that would fill a great void
in the history of America and the world.
We also take
this opportunity to thank our members and friends who continue in this
tradition and provide the service that is the reason for our existence.

Sincerely,
James B. Stewart,
President Sylvia Y. Cyrus, Executive Director
Association for the Study of African American Life and History
