African American Heritage bus tours of Richmond

Sat Feb 16 1-4PM
The Valentine Richmond History Center is offering African American Heritage bus tours of Richmond on Saturday, February 16th and November 8th (1-4PM): Remember the era of Richmond?s slave traders, revisit the role of free blacks and urban slaves, discuss the contributions of blacks during the Civil War, examine the African American experience during Reconstruction and the Jim Crow era, and honor the impact of the lives of modern Richmonders Arthur Ashe and Douglas Wilder. The tour includes a trip through historic Jackson Ward, frequently referred to as “The Black Wall Street of America”, and a visit to the Maggie Walker Historic Site.
