Chasing Dreams Season Opener

September 8 2016 | 5:30pm

Chasing Dreams: Baseball and Becoming American, organized by the National Museum of American Jewish History, highlights the ways in which our national pastime has served as a pathway for learning and understanding American values for Jews and other immigrant groups and their descendants. Presented locally by the Jewish Historical Society of Michigan and the Detroit Historical Society, Chasing Dreams explores the ways in which baseball has reflected not only the opportunities in American society and culture, but also the challenges—including religious and racial tolerance — faced by our nation and local communities. This national story also includes locally curated stories and artifacts.
