Join us as we visit sites in the downtown area that help to tell the story of the contribution of African-Americans to the establishment and continued betterment of Florida’s Capital City. We will visit antebellum homes built by a freed black man, discuss Emancipation Day, Jim Crow laws, segregation in Tallahassee, and learn about Tallahassee’s bus boycott.
This tour recognizes its limitations in both space and in knowledge, but hopes to give voice and visibility to the all too often overlooked history of the African-American contribution in our capital city.
