Description
Bronzeville for a long time was a center for African American culture in the city of Chicago. At the turn of the century the Great Migration brought an incredible amount of African Americans into northern cities and they shaped the landscape of their neighborhoods for years to come. This Black History Month, we aim to celebrate the history and culture of Chicago's very own neighborhood shaped by these people.
Join us on February 16th at 1:30 pm for a panel discussion and the jazz stylings of Margaret Murphy-Webb. This event will take place at George Pullman Elementary School (11311 S Forrestville Ave, Chicago, IL 60628). Free, no reservations required.
