Migration
• Migration is people moving from one place to another.
• How many of you have moved before?– It may have been house to house, one town to
another or maybe a new state.
![Page 3: “ Migration & Community Building ”](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022013108/56813bda550346895da50482/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Push-Pull & Counter-stream
• What may have “pushed” people (including yourselves) to move from one place to another?
• Often people migrate (move) because some difficulties “push” them to leave.
• At the same time the hope for a better life “pulls” people to a new country or region.
• Has anyone ever moved back to a place you once left?
![Page 4: “ Migration & Community Building ”](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022013108/56813bda550346895da50482/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
That's Counter-stream
• Counter-stream is when people leave a country or a region and then come back.
• What are some instances that you can think of where people left an area only to return?
• Discuss these ideas of push, pull and counter-stream with a partner. Then read together pages 67-71 on “Migration.”

Assignment
• Each of you will need to have completed an “entrance ticket” to get into class tomorrow describing what push, pull and counter-stream mean to you.

Ethnic Groups
• What are ethnic groups?• What ethnic groups make up the residents of
Black River Falls?
• How did these groups get here?
• Do you know your ethnicity?
![Page 7: “ Migration & Community Building ”](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022013108/56813bda550346895da50482/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Reasons Ethnic Groups Came
• Obviously our community has a rich history of the Ho-Chunk nation living here.
• Ethnic Europeans came to this region early on for the fur-trade. In the 19th century people came for what the land offered them.........farming and lumbering.

Farming built Community
• Jackson County, as well as much of Wisconsin, was a farming community. With the technologies of the 1800s, for all the work to get done on all the farms, people came together to help one another out.
• Husking and threshing in particular were events where people worked together.
• Coming together to help.... build community!• What is the common feature of the following
pictures?

House and Barn Raisings
“The gathering took on the ‘character of a festival, for during the work stories had been told, adventures related, and everybody served with food and refreshments, which, in all, makes a house raising an “institution” among pioneers in America, much heralded, cheerfully attended, and long remembered by the participants’.”
