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.
