Location(s)

The Brookport Public Library will conduct a series of oral histories with local African American residents and tie together these stories with local structures of historic significance. Schools, churches, and other social and community centers will all be photographed and documented for an exhibit and CD which will be placed in the local library for community research. The project will culminate in an opening reception and open house.
