Blue Room Lecture Series - Mariners and the Eastern Pacific: The Cycle of Seafaring from Sail to Steam
SEE EVENT DETAILS
The National Park Service and California State University Maritime Academy are partnering to present the 2nd annual series of free lectures for the public. All lectures begin at 1 PM. Join us in the Blue Room of the Maritime Museum (900 Beach Street.)
Jennifer Metz will explore sailing experiences from the mid-19th century to the mid-20th century, such as the process of signing on, work and leisure aboard ship, and activities while in port. Her talk will also evaluate to what extent race, class, and other demographic factors shaped ship-side work and shoreside sailor interactions.
Jennifer Metz is a lecturer of American History, Maritime History, and Politics in the department of Global Studies and Maritime Affairs at California State University, Maritime. She is a recent fellow of the National Endowment for the Humanities Munson Institute of Maritime Studies at Mystic Seaport, Connecticut. Some of her professional projects include developing new history content and pedagogy for the K-12 level, writing for K-12 textbook curriculum, and contributing to public history projects in Bay Area maritime history.
