Jim Crow, March on Washington will be fall lecture topics

We’ll have full details later, but just wanted to share these dates for future reference, as the Historical Perspectives Lecture Series has scheduled two lectures for fall. They are:

• Monday, Oct. 21, 2:15 p.m. — Jonathan Holloway, professor of history and African American Studies and master of Calhoun College, Yale University, will speak on his new book, Jim Crow Wisdom.

• Wednesday, Nov. 6, 2:15 p.m. — Will Jones, associate professor of history at UW-Madison, will discuss his new book on civil rights and The March on Washington.

Both lectures take place in the Union’s Christie Theatre.
