Explore the complex and often overlapping identities of the people who lived in Galicia—a diverse region once part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. This program examines how ethnicity, language, religion, and nationality shaped personal and communal identity in a region home to Poles, Ukrainians, Jews, and others. Through historical context, we’ll discuss how political boundaries, shifting regimes, and social pressures influenced how individuals and families identified themselves—and how those identities appear in historical records. Ideal for researchers tracing roots in Eastern Europe or anyone curious about decoding identity in multicultural borderlands. Presented by Kate McKenzie.
