Project Description<\/strong><\/p>\n

Crossing Borders, Bridging Generations<\/em> (CBBG) is a public programming series and oral history project about mixed-heritage families, race, ethnicity, culture, and identity, infused with historical perspective. CBBG is currently in the planning phase (April 2011 \u2013 March 2012) and will result in a multi-faceted interpretive website expected to be completed in 2015.<\/p>\n

By providing a public forum for conversations about mixed-heritage families, Crossing Borders, Bridging Generations<\/em> will inform the dialogue with historical perspectives on social constructions of race, ethnicity, and community; changes in immigration and citizenship laws and practices; and changes in marriage and partnership laws and practices. Through an interpretive website, online discussions initiated and led by scholars, public programs and events, Brooklyn Historical Society (BHS) will invite the public to share their own stories, respond to other people\u2019s stories, react to, and learn from scholarly interpretations of these stories…<\/p>\n
