Workshop on Journeys of Forced and Undocumented Migration

On February 20-21, Elizabeth Greene, Richard Leventhal, Justin Leidwanger and Brian Daniels co-organized a workshop: Memory, Movement, Materiality: Journeys of Forced and Undocumented Migration, featuring a keynote event by artist Michael Rakowitz. The workshop, which explored the materiality of passages, past and present, of forced and undocumented migration, was sponsored by the Perry World House and the Penn Cultural Heritage Center at the University of Pennsylvania. It provided an opportunity for an international group of archaeologists, museum professionals, artists, and policy makers to consider ongoing questions of human movement in a contemporary light.
