About ASALH:
Mission, Vision, Structure, Activities
Established on September 9, 1915 by Dr. Carter G. Woodson, we are the Founders of Black History Month and carry forth the work of our founder, the Father of Black History. We continue his legacy of speaking a fundamental truth to the world–that Africans and peoples of African descent are makers of history and co-workers in what W. E. B. Du Bois called, “The Kingdom of Culture.” ASALH’s mission is to create and disseminate knowledge about Black History, to be, in short, the nexus between the Ivory Tower and the global public. We labor in the service of Blacks and all humanity. Learn more about ASALH’s history here. |

It is so sad that our children are put into positions where they have to make adult decisions because the adults around them can’t or won’t. I write YA and I’d really be interested in how the domestic abuse story in this play is handled from the child’s p.o.v.
