Colby College, April 26, 2015
Maine Migrations, Past and Present brought together folks who study, work with, care about, or are themselves members of minority communities that immigrated to Maine, both recently and many generations ago. We explored common dynamics across diverse immigrant communities as well as the similarities and differences among their experiences in Maine.
Maine Migrations, Past and Present was a part of the 2014-15 Annual Humanities Theme, “Migrations,” organized in conjunction with Colby’s Maine Jewish History Project.
Elizabeth Jabar's talk entitled "Art, immigrant identities, and education" was presented during the Art and Maine’s Immigrant Communities section of the conference.
