May 17th - 17th

For the PD in Your PJs series, we invite you to come as you are, drink what you want, engage with the experts, and leave with 1.0 CPDU credit.

The Great Migration began during World War I. By the middle of the century, millions of Black Americans had moved from the U.S. South into Northern cities looking for opportunity. Join Illinois and Midwest Studies Historian, Jacob Friefeld, for a brief talk about the early years of the Great Migration followed by a discussion on strategies and resources for teaching the subject.
