The branch structure of ASALH reflects Carter G. Woodson's
belief that our mission of creating and disseminating knowledge
about Black history could not be realized by academics alone. He
envisioned the branches as a means of extending ASALH's reach
across the country and beyond to gather primary materials about
Black history and to promote the finished results to the public
through events and organizational activities.

A Renewed Emphasis on Branches
The Executive Council recognizes the importance of branches.
Staff support is provided to improve the experience of the branch
members. At the annual convention, branches are recognized for
their accomplishments in meeting the ASALH mission.
