  • 2003 Memphis, TN
    From the OAH President I am most pleased to welcome you to the ninety-sixth annual meeting of the Organization of American Historians. As a small learned society, founded nearly a century ago, our predecessor took its original name from the great river valley in which Memphis sits and took as its symbol the wonderful boats which once traversed the mighty river that still dominates the city. We have long since outgrown the name Mississippi Valley Historical Association, and we are no longer simply a learned society but an organization whose members are engaged as much in the pedagogy and presentation of history as its production. But Memphis and its environs with its Indian mounds and battlefields, its music and its museums, its conflicts over slavery, labor, and civil rights speaks broadly to the struggles for justice which is the theme of this year’s meeting. Photo by John T. Consoli Ira Berlin That theme gains special moment since the second full day of our meeting, Friday, 4 April, marks the thirty-fifth anniversary of the assassination of the Reverend Martin Luther King, Jr., on the balcony of the Lorraine Motel not far from where we are convening. OAH will be joining with the city of Memphis and a variety of civic associations, religious organizations, and labor unions to commemorate that historic moment. Our meeting will reflect upon that tragedy and the struggles that both preceded and followed the murder of Martin Luther King, along with a host of similar struggles as the people of the American colonies and the American republic labored to realize the ideals set forth in the nation’s founding charter.
