History of Chicago and The Great Migration: Carol Adams & Timuel Black - Shimer College Ideas Series
▶️ The documentary and oral history of Chicago & The Great Migration, a discussion between Dr. Carol Adams & Historian Timuel Black; Presented by The Illinois Institute of Technology in collaboration with Shimer College.
---
This year Shimer College joins the City of Chicago in celebrating the centennial of the Great Migration during black history month and beyond. In anticipation for 2016, we are kicking off the remembrance and festivity with this video of two celebrated American contemporaries, Dr. Carol Adams and historian Timuel Black. In this talk, Adams and Carol draw on both oral narrative and documentary accounts of this watershed moment in American History, to paint a vibrant picture of pre & post civil rights movement Chicago—the struggles it faced and continues to face. Touching on the eclipse of slavery through the injustice insidious Jim Crow, the speakers relate how their own legacies of flight from the South were intimately born of the American racial story. As the battle against everyday racism as well as institutionalized racist culture & law persists into this century, this video talk assists in broadening public discourse past Martin Luther King and Malcom X toward a richer historical context in which these figures had and continue to have meaning for national dialogue.
This video talk is brought to you by Shimer College's new youtube program Bright Ideas: a Thought Series from Chicago. Check out and subscribe to our channel for free lectures, talks, symposia, artistic performances, and more.

--About Shimer--
For those of you who are just discovering Shimer for the first time, Shimer is an alternative liberal arts College where students study a comprehensive “Great Books” program. This is just to say that our students take all seminar style classes instead of lectures, reading and discussing transformative books of the various fields of the liberal arts--math, science, philosophy, art, literature, psychology, sociology, anthropology and political science. We offer traditional four-year degrees, early entrance, and transfer paths. Oh, and of course, the financial aid and scholarships you need to make such a real education possible. Our biggest scholarship opportunities are the Dangerous Optimist Scholarship for transfer students transferring in the spring, and the Montaigne Scholarship for new students beginning in the fall. These scholarships, like our education, are designed to take you seriously—to meet you halfway and acknowledge the real seriousness of purpose and (in all honesty) the risk you take in applying.

-- - --About the Great Migration-- - --
The Great Migration was the movement of 6 million African Americans out of the rural Southern United States to the urban Northeast, Midwest, and West that occurred between 1910 and 1970. Some historians differentiate between the first Great Migration (1910–1930), numbering about 1.6 million migrants who left mostly rural areas to migrate to northern industrial cities; and, after a lull during the Great Depression, a Second Great Migration (1940–1970), in which 5 million or more people moved from the South, including many to California and other western states. Between 1910 and 1970, blacks moved from 14 states of the South, especially Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, and Texas, to the other three cultural (and census-designated) regions of the United States. According to US census figures, Georgia was the only Deep South state which suffered net declines in its African American population for three consecutive decades from 1920–1950. More townspeople with urban skills moved during the second migration...
A reverse migration has gathered strength since 1965...As early as 1975 to 1980, seven southern states were net black migration gainers. African-American populations have continued to drop throughout much of the Northeast, particularly with black emigration out of the state of New York, as well as out of Northern New Jersey as they rise in the Southern United States.

2018 Ideas Conference - Full Event
For the past 15 years, the Center for American Progress has served as a creative engine for introducing bold solutions that advance progressive values on nearly every possible front. In the past year alone, we have defended the Affordable Care Act; outlined policies to create workplaces that support women and families; discussed the impact of race across a wide range of issue areas; and helped drive opposition to President Donald Trump’s tax plan.
At CAP, we believe that ideas are the heart of all progressive change, but we also know that ideas aren’t enough. It takes grassroots advocacy and real leadership supporting those ideas to create true progressive change.
As we celebrate our 15th year of big ideas, CAP is bringing together elected officials, policy experts, cultural influencers, and grassroots activists at the 2018 CAP Ideas Conference, where we will explore and unveil new ideas that can make America a place for every single one of us to thrive.
