Impacts of Restrictive Policy: Exploring the Role of Black Americans and Women in World War II
Monday, January 30, 2023
9:00 am - 3:30 pm EST The policies and practices of the United States Navy often reflect the attitudes and beliefs of the broader United States. Many people joined the Navy for the many opportunities it offered. The USS Intrepid served from 1943-1974. During this period, Navy policies and practices limited the participation of Black Americans and women. However, members of these groups were ever present and persisted, moving the Navy forward to meet the ideals set down by the founders of this country at its inception. Join us at the Intrepid Museum on January 30 to learn about the stories of Navy service members and discuss the policies and practices that impacted their experience.
Check-in starts at 8:30 am.
Morning coffee provided. $10.50 attendance fee.
This event provides four and a half (4.5) CTLE hours to participating educators, classroom teachers, and paraprofessionals.
