About The Event

Most New Jersey residents went willingly to war in 1917—but some, especially German-Americans, did not. This talk explores the home-front experience of the state, with a special focus on the tension between the civil liberties of those who opposed American participation in the conflict and the military needs of a country at war. Dr. Mark Lender, retired Chairman, History Department, Kean University.
