Did you know that Greenbelt began as a segregated community? Despite the fact that it was built by both Black and white relief workers, only white families would be accepted as residents and it would remain segregated for several decades after its founding in 1937. Join the Greenbelt Museum to learn about the community's first residents of color.
This will be a virtual event where we will share a recorded interview. If you'd like to receive a link to the YouTube premiere, please register. Offered in conjunction with the City of Greenbelt's Black History Month Celebration
