A Special Message from AAA President Leith Mullings

On behalf of the American Anthropological Association I would like to express concern and support for our staff, members and partners across the East Coast. Being in New York myself, I can attest to the destruction left in the wake of Hurricane Sandy. Please know that the thousands of your colleagues across the country and around the world send our best wishes as the recovery efforts begin.
