SUMMARY: The Making of Americans: A WWI Home Front Story
LOCATION:541
DESCRIPTION:<strong>The Making of Americans: A WWI Home Front Story</strong><br /><br /
 ><strong>Sat, Nov <a href="mailto:4@2:00p">4@2:00p</a></strong><br /><br />
 2017 is the centennial celebration of World War I. During the early 20th ce
 ntury Michigan's work force contained a significant number of European immi
 grants, which became an issue when the U.S. went  to war on their former co
 untries. WWI also presented the United States with a unique opportunity, th
 e establishment of Nationalism, which united immigrant residents and rallie
 d them around their new country. George Creel and the Committee on Public I
 nformation who took on the job of combating dissent and creating a patrioti
 c "Home Front", will also be discussed. Our speaker,  Dennis Skupinski, is 
 a historian whose specialty is World War I. He has appeared on local televi
 sion and radio shows, has published articles,  and curated the display "Com
 bat Uniforms on the Western Front" at Michigan's Military Heritage Museum. 
 Please join us to learn more about this important time in Michigan’s histor
 y!
