About this Event
"Mapping Migration, Learning from Oral History: Ottoman Greek Immigration to Western Pennsylvania." A Virtual Lecture-Presentation by Dr. Yiorgo Topalidis, Ph.D., Samuel Proctor Oral History Project, University of Florida. Until now, little was known about Greeks in the Ottoman Empire who migrated to America surrounding the Christian Genocide. For the first time ever, Dr. Topalidis will shine a spotlight on those who settled in Western Pennsylvania through a lecture-presentation on his groundbreaking research. This event is being hosted by the American-Hellenic Foundation of Western Pennsylvania (AHFWP) and the Greek Nationality Room Committee of the Nationality Rooms and Intercultural Exchange Programs at the University of Pittsburgh.
