REGENCY HYATT HOTEL
ATLANTA, GA.

DEVELOPMENT OF THE IDEA

The Association for the Study of Afro-American Life and History was conceived by Dr. Carter G. Woodson as an instrument to promote appreciation of life and history of the Black American, to encourage an understanding of present status, and to enrich the promise of the future.

In 1915, there was, as now, tremendous neglect of the study of the Negro and most other racial groups. Out of this lack of understanding, misinformation about race and color flourished. The founding of The Association for the Study of Afro-American Life and History provided needed reconstruction of black people, ancient history and worthwhile contri-butions to the founding and the continuation of the United States of America.

JOIN NOW

The Association for the Study of Afro-American Life and History, a major national organization in the twin fields of life and history, is composed of members of all racial groups in America. We welcome your membership, and offer full participation in meetings, conferences and conventions and in other activities.
