Civil War to Civil Rights: The Well-Being of a Nation

Observing the 50th anniversary of the March on Washington and the 150th anniversary of the Emancipation Proclamation, this symposium will be both commemorative and forward-looking.

Hosted by the Clarice Smith Center in partnership with the UMD School of Public Health and the UMD School of Public Policy, the symposium will be comprised of scholarly presentations and stimulating theatrical performances.

It will place the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom in its historic context, both as the culmination of the struggle since the Emancipation Proclamation and as the stage-setting for a new generation of struggles to resolve the important  but often hidden  inequalities of our time.
