Free and open to the public! Join us at the Connecticut Museum with Dr. Channon Miller of Trinity College, who will discuss the impact of the early 20th-century migration of Black Americans from the South to Northern cities. The Great Migration is a story of Black way making in America. In this talk with Dr. Miller, the North End of Hartford’s place in this national mosaic comes to life with its accounting of how Black people in the area moved towards freedom and possibility on a terrain of struggle. Come early to view our brand new exhibition, Drawn Here: Stories from Hartford's North End. This program is the first in our spring series that was developed as a companion to the Making History, Making Change Lecture Series, organized by Smithsonian Affiliations.
