Research Seminar Series: The Center for the History of the New America Forum
The Center for the History of the New America Forum features speakers Ira Berlin and Julie Greene.
Since 1965, legal and demographic changes have made the United States an immigrant society once again. Inspired by this fact, the Center for the History of the New America aims to make the University of Maryland the hub for understanding the long immigration history of this country, from 1500 to the present, and its connections to world history. The Center will provide a distinctive institutional home for interdisciplinary and trans-national research, for training faculty and students, and for distributing information about the history of the immigrant experience to a broad public.
If you are interested in the study, the teaching, and the politics the long history of immigration from a global perspective and want to learn more about The Center for the History of the New America at the University of Maryland please join us.
