Description
First published in 1936, The Negro Motorist Green-Book was a revolutionary guide for Black travelers navigating Jim Crow America. Created by Victor H. Green, this indispensable publication offered safe lodging, dining, and service stations across the United States for African Americans during an era of widespread discrimination and violence.This facsimile edition preserves the original text and listings, offering readers a powerful window into the challenges and resilience of Black life on the road. More than a travel guide, the Green Book is a historical document of survival, self-reliance, and community-building.Today, it stands as a sobering and essential reminder of the barriers Black Americans faced-and the networks they created to overcome them.Perfect for students, historians, and general readers, this edition brings the Green Book's legacy back into public view, where it continues to inspire and educate.
