Alliance Annual Meeting
Call for Session Proposals – 2021 Annual Meeting
Do you have a great idea you’d like to share with the local history community? The Alliance is now accepting session proposals for the 2021 Annual Meeting. This year’s theme is Challenge Accepted: Overcoming Obstacles.
We haven’t yet determined whether the meeting will be held online or in person, but mark your calendars for the beginning of October, regardless.
It is our hope that the theme will inspire proposals that reflect a variety of ways that individuals have experienced obstacles. We encourage sessions that address the creative ways your organization has overcome the pandemic or other obstacles. We also hope to include content sessions about individuals or groups who overcame the obstacles of racism, sexism, economic insecurity, religious discrimination, or other barriers to full participation in American society. We also welcome sessions on any aspect of public history theory and practice. Submissions are due February 16, 2021.
