And for even better news, PCI Webinars is now offering live webinars every week!

CANCELLED DUE TO INCLEMENT WEATHER

We will reschedule the presentation of “A War on Two Fronts” with Dr. Maggi Morehouse, Burroughs Distinguished Professor of Southern History and Culture at Coastal Carolina University and a daughter of an officer in the 93rd infantry division. Dr. Morehouse’s research explores how African Americans in the 92nd and 93rd Army infantry divisions fought for racial equality during wartime, and then went on to be active participants in the Civil Rights Movement.
