Cindy Sue<p>This was an eye-opening introduction to the history of Ferris State University. As a Michigander, I have only been to Big Rapids twice in my life, was never interested in FSU as a high school senior. But it appears they have some interesting history that more people should know about. Give this a read. I really liked it a lot and will make the journey to the Jim Crow Museum there sometime. </p><p><a href="https://bookstodon.com/tags/MichiganHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MichiganHistory</span></a> <a href="https://bookstodon.com/tags/michigan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>michigan</span></a> <a href="https://bookstodon.com/tags/books" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>books</span></a> <a href="https://bookstodon.com/tags/bookstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bookstodon</span></a> <br><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/bookstodon" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>bookstodon</span></a></span></p>

Dearborn Historical Museum<p>Introduction:<br>We are a local history museum and archive that occupies three 1830s buildings in Dearborn <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/Michigan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Michigan</span></a>. As we rely on a broad base of social media to spread of our museum, we thought we'd try mastodon. Our museum serves as a general history museum and archive for the City of <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/Dearborn" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Dearborn</span></a>. As a result, we'll be posting a wide variety of things related to Dearborn, Detroit, and even <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/MichiganHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MichiganHistory</span></a>.</p>
