SUMMARY:3.11.21 - Dr. David Pilgrim
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for a special presentation from Dr. David Pilgrim as he tells us about the Jim Crow Museum that he founded and curates\, then takes us on a virtual tour via ZOOM. \nDr. David Pilgrim is a public speaker and one of this country’s leading experts on issues relating to multiculturalism\, diversity\, and race relations. He has been interviewed by National Public Radio\, Time magazine\, the British Broadcasting Corporation\, and dozens of newspapers\, including the New York Times\, Washington Post\, Boston Globe\, Chicago Tribune\, and the Los Angeles Times. He is best known as the founder and curator of the Jim Crow Museum-a 12\,000 piece collection of racist artifacts located at Ferris State University. The museum uses objects of intolerance to teach tolerance and promote social justice. \nPilgrim is the author of several books\, including Understanding Jim Crow (PM Press\, 2015)\, and Watermelons\, Nooses\, and Straight Razors (PM Press\, 2017). His writings\, many found on the museum’s web site (ferris.edu/jimcrow)\, are used by scholars\, students\, and civil rights workers to better understand historical and contemporary expressions of racism. The web site has been linked to hundreds of sites and has resulted in Pilgrim being invited to deliver public lectures at dozens of institutions\, including Stanford University\, Spring Arbor College\, the University of Michigan\, Smith College\, and the University of North Carolina. \nPilgrim is an applied sociologist with a doctorate from The Ohio State University. He believes that racism can be objectively studied and creatively assailed. In 2004\, he produced\, with Clayton Rye\, the documentary Jim Crow’s Museum to explain his approach to battling racism. The film won several awards including Best Documentary at the 2004 Flint Film Festival. Marc Haefele\, a film critic at the Los Angeles Daily News called the documentary\, a “grisly low-key masterpiece.” Jim Crow’s Museum is shown nationally on affiliates of the Public Broadcasting Service (PBS). Pilgrim and Carrie Weis created two traveling exhibitions to take the Jim Crow Museum’s lessons to a national audience. Hateful Things is a 39-unit traveling exhibition of objects found in the Jim Crow Museum. The objects are accompanied by didactic panels that place the images in the proper historical context–offering insight into their past and present popularity–and effects. Hateful Things has traveled to many institutions\, including Aquinas College\, Delta College\, Utah Valley State College\, and the Black Holocaust Museum. Pilgrim and Weis\, in 2005\, created a second traveling exhibition\, Them: Images of Separation\, a 35-unit exhibition that deals with the stereotyping of women\, poor Whites\, gays\, Jewish Americans\, Native Americans\, Mexican Americans\, African Americans\, and Asian Americans-and others. Pilgrim believes that Reverend Martin Luther King\, Jr. was right when he said\, “Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.” Diversity is more than a black-white issue; more\, indeed\, than a racial issue. \nIn 2006\, Pilgrim served as a consultant to Will Smith (directorial debut) for the UPN television show\, All Of Us. Mr. Smith wanted to make sure that the episode-called “The N-Word”-dealt with issues of race and racism in a non-stereotypical fashion. \nPilgrim challenges audiences to think deeply about diversity and race relations. He is a Ferris State University Distinguished Teacher. Pilgrim has spent his adult life using objects of intolerance to teach tolerance. It works. His goal is to get people talking about diversity and race relations in meaningful ways-and\, then\, to go and do something positive.
