Save the date! The Memphis City Immersion is scheduled for November 4-13, 2022. The theme for the Immersion is 鈥淕rit and Grind: Exploring How a City鈥檚 Past Impacts and Influences the Present鈥.
Memphis is a metropolitan, yet-hometown southern city whose history is filled with curiosity, intrigue, and surprise. From its incorporation by the State of Tennessee in 1826, to the triumphs of being the nation鈥檚 leader in the cotton and tobacco industries, to the tragedy of the yellow fever epidemic which permanently changed the city鈥檚 demography, Memphis has been a city of stamina and persistence.聽 Its history is the basis for the city鈥檚 contemporary motto which is 鈥済rit and grind鈥.聽 Memphians just don鈥檛 quit.
