The National Park Service has published two studies on African American outdoor recreation that examine histories of institutional segregation, loss, and tragedy, but also of joy and resilience. This history demonstrates that the African American quest for freedom, justice, and equality has long been waged on a variety of fronts. It also illustrates how even in the face of ongoing struggles, African Americans still found ways to enjoy the pleasures of life.
National Park Service theme studies examine national historic context on specific American history or prehistory topics for historic property designation. Learn more at: https://www.nps.gov/…/national-park-service-publishes…
