1 The Great MigrationWomen in Jazz

2 History students will create projects for National History Day based on Jazz from A to Z’s season theme of “Breaking Boundaries” and the NHD theme of “Rights and Responsibilities.” Teachers will compose a lesson plan that integrates jazz and the NEA Jazz in the Schools in their curriculum

3 After analyzing primary sources, participants will determine the economic, political, social and cultural effects of the Great Migration. Participants will consider the function of music as an agent of social change by studying women of the Great Migration who broke boundaries in jazz. After examining jazz in historical context, participants will explain how jazz can be a “boundary breaker.” Participants will examine the role of “rights and responsibilities” in the Great Migration.
