LOST and FOUND (eBook, ePUB)

Beacon's Black Community 1850 - 1930

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The Highlands Current's Black History series, Always Present, Never Seen by Chip Rowe (2022), was excellent, but a hole in their historical narrative needed to be filled. The result was a researched account of we who were "always present," focusing on Beacon's Black community from 1850 to 1930. This accounting is bolstered by a careful study of census records and supported by boyhood memories and observations of Beacon's West End and the village (company town) of Brockway that bookend the historical narrative of that earlier Black community.
