Black Americans fought bravely to protect defend a nation that defined them as second class citizens. The #GreenBookProject shows how they left and returned to a nation that was unsafe and hostile to their daily passage, and worked to dehumanize them at every turn

Restaurants, hotels, pools, parks, roadside stops, and even drinking fountains were not equally accessible to all Americans in the past. The Green Book Project archives the data and protects this record for future research greenbookproject.osu.edu #GreenBookProject

During Jim Crow, everything from restaraunts to stores to hotels to pharmacies to gas stations required making safe choices. They shaped every trip a Black person made. We document that history, and you can add your story to it here #CommunityMap: greenbookproject.osu.edu #GreenBookProject #EconSky

Black veterans fought for freedom abroad and returned home to second class citizenship. Traveling while Black during Jim Crow was about survival, mobility, and dignity. The Green Book Project documents that story:

During Jim Crow, Black children learned very early which routes and places were safe for them and which were not. See the maps and add your story to this historical project:
