Our distinguished speaker is Jane H. Hill, President of the American Anthropological Society; her presentation, scheduled for Saturday evening, is titled, "Race, Racism, and the Unity of Anthropology."
A presidential roundtable, focusing on the history of CSAS, will provide
an opportunity for our distinguished elders to reminisce and to help us
plan for the future. Together with teaching workshops, a reprints-exchange
in the book exhibit room, and (due to popular demand) a jazz pub crawl,
the Kansas City meeting promises to be a lively one, with something for
everyone!
