Two rounds of workshops with 11+ diverse sessions have been developed by and for the community\, touching on a broad spectrum of topics to support this goal. There will be additional opportunities to connect over a pizza/salad lunch sponsored by Joan Smothers of Smothers Group /Compass Real Estate. Finally\, a community resource fair will enable attendees to learn about various organizations and support available in our community. Teachers in attendance will be able to earn Continuing Education Units (CEUs)\, and ASL as well as Spanish-language interpretation will be made available. \n

SUMMARY:Undergound Railroad in our Backyard
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Larry McClellan will explain the active research underway nearby in old Flagg Creek and Lyonsville and share stories about freedom seekers on their journeys through Northern Illinois. Larry A. McClellan reframes the story\, not only introducing readers to earlier freedom seekers\, but also illustrating that those who bravely aided them were Black and white\, men and women. McClellan features dozens of individuals who made dangerous journeys to reach freedom as well as residents in Chicago and across northeastern Illinois who made a deliberate choice to break the law to help. Enjoy this follow up on our initial program with Prof. McClellan last year.
