About this event
This exhibit offers an immersive look at the reality of travel for African Americans in mid-century America and how the annual guide served as an indispensable resource for the nation’s rising African American middle class and evidence of a vibrant business class.
During your visit you will also be guided through the companion exhibition, The Green Book in D.C.: “A Particular Place for Particular People,” which was produced by DC Public Library to complement the national, traveling exhibition by taking a deep dive into the stories of the more than 150 businesses and organizations right here in the District that were featured in The Green Book. At the end of the tour, visitors will be directed to additional displays and activities inspired by The Green Book throughout the library.
