We encourage our members and others who are interested to subscribe and/or purchase copies of the Association for the Study African American Life and History's (ASALH) Black History Bulletin.
The Black History Bulletin is dedicated to enhancing teaching and learning in the areas of history. Its aim is to publish, generate, and disseminate peer-reviewed information about African Americans in U. S. history, the African Diaspora generally, and the peoples of Africa. Its purpose is to inform the knowledge base for the professional praxis of secondary educators through articles that are grounded in theory, yet supported by practice. The Black History Bulletin welcomes articles on all aspects of Black history, especially those written with a focus on:
(1) middle school U.S. history; (2) high school U.S. history; (3) teacher preparation U.S. history methods.
