Detroit Remains: Using historical archeology to connect the past to the present

<p>From the <a href='https://reutherlib.blubrry.net/'>Tales from the Reuther Library</a> podcast, Dr. Krysta Ryzewski explains how historical archaeology digs at famous Detroit locales – including the Little Harry speakeasy, the Blue Bird Inn, and the Grande Ballroom – have clarified how underrepresented communities of Detroit experienced and responded to the Great Migration, changing economic forces, and a shifting political and social landscape in the 20th century. Ryzweski is an associate professor and chair of the Anthropology Department at Wayne State University, and author of Detroit Remains: Archaeology and Community Histories of Six Legendary Places.</p> <p>On <a href='https://laborhistoryin2.podbean.com/'>Labor History in 2:00</a>: “The Big One”; GM workers in Flint, Michigan walk off the job in 1998.</p> <p>Got a questions, comments or suggestions welcome, and to find out how you can be a part of Labor History Today, email us at <a href='mailto:LaborHistoryToday@gmail.com'>LaborHistoryToday@gmail.com</a></p> <p>Labor History Today is produced by <a href='https://unioncityradio.podbean.com/'>Union City Radio</a> and the <a href='https://lwp.georgetown.edu/'>Kalmanovitz Initiative for Labor and the Working Poor</a>.
