Arab & Chaldean Underrepresented Communities History Project

Detroit City Council’s Historic Designation Advisory Board (HDAB) has received a National Parks Service Underrepresented Communities (URC) grant to study, recognize, record, and share the histories of Detroit’s Arab and Chaldean communities. Detroit is the first city in the nation given a URC grant to study Arab and Chaldean history!

Please join HDAB on Tuesday, February 20, to learn more and help launch the Arab & Chaldean Underrepresented Communities History Project. HDAB needs YOUR help identifying people and places significant in Arab and Chaldean history in the city of Detroit.
