Learn about less-covered topics in American history by engaging with primary sources and seeing how their inclusion in our national narratives change the ways we engage with the past. Emphasis will be on having attendees work directly with primary source material.
In our final session for African American History month we will look at the Green Book as a tool for navigating sundown towns across middle America and consider how limitations on travel persisted in the United States in spite of civil rights legislation.
Feel free to bring a personal device to work on or borrow a laptop from us for this session.
