Despre activitate
Explore the Immigrant, Labor, and Civil Rights History of Bay View through a gentle walk in this charming neighborhood of Milwaukee. Emeritus History Professor Tim Thering will transport you back to three different time periods that dramatically shaped the Bay View neighborhood, the city of Milwaukee, and the nation.
You will learn about the Bay View Massacre that tragically ended Milwaukee’s immigrant workers’ struggle for the 8-hour day. You will hear about how Anarchist Italian immigrants in the neighborhood battled with local authorities during World War I. Finally, you will discover how the son of Bay View grocers, Father James Groppi, helped to lead the Milwaukee Civil Rights movement of the 1960s.
The tour includes visiting several iconic businesses in this tightly packed corner of Bay View, Milwaukee. Food and most drinks are included in the price.
