Additional Info
Affiliated Society SessionsThe AHA program includes both sessions reviewed and selected by the AHA Program Committee and sessions organized by AHA affiliated societies. Affiliate sessions are not subject to Program Committee review. This practice is intended to promote collaboration and communication across the discipline, enable affiliates to have a presence at the conference, and facilitate networking between different organizations. Affiliate sessions are designated as such in the program with the name or initials of the affiliate.

Land Acknowledgment
The American Historical Association acknowledges that the land on which New Orleans sits was once called Bulbancha, a Choctaw term meaning “place of many languages.” This place belonged to the Chitimachas’ homeland and served as an important trade and transportation hub for many different Indigenous peoples, including the Acolapissas, Bayagoulas, Choctaws, Houmas, and Biloxis. We are meeting this year on the historic and contemporary lands of several nations, including, but not limited to, the Chitimacha Tribe of Louisiana, the United Houma Nation, the Tunica-Biloxi Tribe of Louisiana, the Jena Band of Choctaw Indians, the Grand Caillou/Dulac Band, and the Isle de Jean Charles Band.
