Hybrid Meeting – Via Zoom and in-person at Manatee Central LibraryPresented by Peggy Jude
This lecture traces the major waves of immigration to America, focusing on who came, when they arrived, and the key reasons behind each movement. Attendees will gain insight into the push and pull factors that drove groups from all over the world to the US—from early colonial settlers and enslaved Africans to the diverse arrivals of the modern era. Attendees seeking to understand or celebrate the evolving American story will find this program rich with context for both family history research and broader historical reflection.
