Marty Blatt [email protected]

How appropriate that we are meeting in Pensacola, Florida, a place long identified with numerous cultures and diverse populations, for the “Crossing Borders/Building Communities–Real and Imagined” Annual Meeting. And, if you are traveling from a colder environment like I am, what a pleasant experience it will be to spend several days on the Gulf of Mexico in western Florida.

Patrick Moore and his Local Arrangements Committee have done wonderful work. This annual meeting, held in Historic Pensacola Village, will be the first that NCPH has held at a historic village and this will allow all of us to walk outdoors from session to session, an opportunity to move around not generally available at our annual meetings. Saturday night we will gather under the stars to forget about ice and snow and enjoy the Shrimp Boil Fundraiser. Pensacola tours will examine colonial archaeology, Civil Rights, antebellum industry, the historic waterfront, and nearby Mobile, Alabama. There is even a community service project.

Our Program Committee, skillfully chaired by Roger Launius, has assembled an outstanding program covering an exceptionally diverse set of issues, including African American and Native American history, the teaching of public history, controversial and difficult subjects in public history, locally and internationally focused topics, and much more.

With the Sesquicentennial of the Civil War, NCPH will be on the cutting edge with our plenary presentation by Tony Horwitz, author of the wonderful book, Confederates in the Attic: Dispatches from the Unfinished Civil War, who is presently preparing a book on John Hotel Information Brown. Horwitz will speak about history and remembrance, and how journalism informs his approach to the past. Another plenary session will examine how public historians are negotiating the Sesquicentennial. Among the panelists will be Dwight Pitcaithley, who as Chief Historian of the National Park Service played a pivotal role in getting Civil War parks to address slavery.

I look forward to seeing you in Pensacola April 6–9, 2011.

Located along the picturesque Florida Gulf Coast, Pensacola’s past reflects a mixture of cultures and people unique to this part of America.

The Gulf Coast region’s present day identity draws upon Native American, European, African, and American influences absorbed through thousands of years of indigenous occupation and over four-hundred and fifty years

HOTEL / WELCOME of European and American settlement. Throughout the past four centuries, ownership of Pensacola changed hands between the Spanish, French, British, American, and Confederate governments on eight separate occasions leaving behind a legacy of multiculturalism evident through the architecture, names, cuisine, and people of the region. In more recent years, Pensacola’s location along the Gulf Coast provided an ideal space for the United States Navy to experiment with advances in human flight, lending to the city’s alternate nickname, the Cradle of Naval Aviation. By Flickr User Bonnie_Woodson. One of the most historic cities in America, Pensacola’s incredible past is only rivaled by its equally amazing natural beauty. Nestled between the sugar white beaches of the Gulf of Mexico and the dense pine forests of Northern Florida, Pensacola offers visitors opportunities to explore underwater treasures, wetlands, inland waterways, old growth forests, and much more.

We hope that your time in Pensacola is spent exploring the myriad unique opportunities the region has to offer. We are confident that once you experience our fair city, you will come to know it as we do, “The western gate to the Sunshine State, where thousands live the way millions wish they could!”

The Association for the Study of African American Life and History (ASALH) is soliciting papers and panels for its upcoming 96th Annual Convention. This year’s conference theme is: “African Americans and the U.S. Civil War.” Although the program committee welcomes papers and panels on any aspect of African and African American history and culture, special preference will be given to submissions directly related to this year’s theme.

Using a wide variety of disciplines, this year’s conference seeks to explore many aspects of African American involvement in the Civil War, 1861-1865. Important topics include African Americans and the abolitionist movement, African American women and life on the homefront during the war years, African American participation in the military and African American life and politics during the Reconstruction Era, 1865-1877. In addition, recent popular and scholarly debates over causes of the Civil War will be explored.

In 1861 as the United States stood at the brink of civil war, people of African descent, both slave and free, waited with a watchful eye. They understood that a war between the Union military and the Confederacy might bring about the “day of jubilee” and the destruction of slavery. When the Confederate troops fired upon Fort Sumter on 12 April 1861 and hostilities began, President Abraham Lincoln maintained that the paramount cause was to preserve the Union, not to end the practice of slavery. Frederick Douglass, the most prominent African American leader, declared that regardless of Union intentions, the war would bring an end to the South’s “peculiar institution.”

Over the next four years, the four million people of African descent in the United States sought to prove Frederick Douglass right. Free and enslaved African Americans rallied around the Union flag and the cause of freedom. From the cotton and tobacco fields of the South to the small towns and big cities of the North, nearly 200,000 black men joined the Grand Army of the Republic and took up arms to destroy slavery and the Confederacy. The ASALH convention theme for 2011 honors the role of people of African descent in ending slavery and preserving the Union.

Given the recent political and academic debates about the legacy of the Civil War, papers and panels offering interdisciplinary analyses and perspectives of the continuing legacy of the Civil War in American and African American life are particularly welcome.

The deadline for the submission of panel and paper proposals is 30 April 2011. All proposals must be submitted electronically to ASALH through the All Academic online system at http://www.asalh.org/callforpapers.html. Proposals should include title of the paper or panel, author(s) and affiliation(s), an abstract of paper or panel of 200-250 words, and all contact information. Only panel proposal submitters will receive complimentary audio/visual equipment on a first come first serve basis.

For information on how to make electronic submissions, please visit www.asalh.org/96thconvention.html, around January 1, 2011. Visit the FAQ page at http://www.asalh.org/files/FAQs_sheet.doc now for important information regarding submissions.
