Public History Community Forum: Race and Resistance through Public History

Temple University’s Center for Public History and the Mid-Atlantic Regional Center for the Humanities at Rutgers University-Camden will present the 8th annual Public History Community Forum (PubComm) on April 5, 2018. This year’s theme is “Racism & Resistance” – a dialogue-based forum devoted to the issues of inclusion and accessibility impacting our work. Three sessions on education, activism, and preservation will be led by local community leaders of color both within and outside of the so-called field. Our organizing question – how can we return public history to its grassroots, civically-minded origins? Join us!

This free event will be held on April 5th from 10am-3pm at the William Way LGBT Community Center in Philadelphia. Register now at Eventbrite and stay tuned for more details about speakers. More information is available at the PubComm website.
