Newly Discovered Manuscript from Carter G. Woodson Published

The Association for the Study of African American Life and History just published Carter G. Woodson’s Appeal: A Lost Manuscript, this past December.

This interesting thing is that I was unfamiliar with this organization and this book before this morning.  An authors I recently profiled on AALBC.com Casey Curry  mention she was doing the ASALH event in D.C. this weekend.

I try to keep track of all the big event related to Black books, so I looked up the event, learned about the organization and discovered this book.  Because I heard absolutely nothing about this apparently recently discovered book from anyone.  I began to doubt if it was even a new discovery, or if it was even significant.  Important this are discussed, talking about and mention in the media, right?

We I do not have time right now to determine if this is indeed a new revelation; so I’m sharing it as if it is new and obviously terrific news.  A new book from Carter G Woodson!
