Today there are a remaining few people who inhabited the world of Carter G. Woodson, the
Father of Black History.  We are exceedingly fortunate that among those are two senior
scholars who grew up in the midst of Woodson as he laid the foundation for the field of
Black History.  On September 29, 2006, Adelaide M. Cromwell and John Hope Franklin
held ASALH's 91st Annual Convention spellbound as they reflected on the life, times, and
contributions of Carter G. Woodson.  It was a singular occasion as the two learned,
gracious, and witty scholars spoke not only of Woodson, but also gave the audience
valuable insights into their own lives during the years prior to the Civil Rights Era.  
ASALH is proud to offer the public a timeless record of that event so that coming
generations can share this high point of the African American intellectual tradition.
