40th Annual Nashville Conference on African American History and Culture
February 12, 2021 |
On Friday, February 12, 2021, join Tennessee State University's College of Liberal Arts and the Metropolitan Historical Commission for the 40th Annual Nashville Conference on African American History and Culture (NCAAHC), a dynamic celebration of the contributions of African Americans to Nashville and Tennessee history. For forty years, this award-winning conference has brought together historians, students, educators, community leaders and others interested in African American history and culture.
This year's conference will be the first-ever virtual NCAAHC and is packed with many new presenters, engaging sessions and talented musical guests. Attendees will be treated to a thoughtful panel discussion with some of Nashville's foremost historians. Participants will also experience a virtual tour of the Jefferson Street Sound (JSS) Museum, hosted by JSS Records CEO Lorenzo Washington. The $20 registration fee includes access to the half-day online event, a commemorative NCAAHC lapel pin and both a print* and digital copy of the newly-revised Profiles of African Americans in Tennessee book showcasing all 40 years of illuminating conference profiles. We hope you will join us in celebrating the 40th annual NCAAHC!
*One printed book copy per registration. Please note items may ship after the conference.
