The Negro Motorist Green Book was widely used during Jim Crow segregation to determine which facilities were cordial, safe, and willing to serve Black people. This multimedia exhibition, curated by Green Book scholar Candacy Taylor, examines the guide's fascinating history. Film, photographs, installations, oral histories, and interactive components help illuminate the trepidation experienced by African American travelers, while also honoring their resilience.
