University of Memphis Graduate Association for African American History

We are the Graduate Association for African American History or GAAAH. We are a small body of graduate students in the history Dept.

We try to reach out to students interested and involved in history, although our field is primarily African American-we reach out to all. I see our principal purpose as helping graduate and undergraduate students identify with and navigate through their courses at the U of M. Again, although the field is African American studies, race or ethnicity is not important.
