"The Green Book: Guide to Freedom" Screening & Discussion Panel
Feb 22, 2025
This February, learn how Black Americans traveled during segregation at a screening and panel discussion for "The Green Book: Guide to Freedom." The film covers a travel guide printed in 1936 during segregation. During the Jim Crow era, the Green Book was used by Black travelers to find restaurants, hotels, and other businesses that would welcome them without discrimination. The guide was a roadmap for safe passage within a then-segregated country. Don't miss this opportunity to learn from this Smithsonian film screening and engage in discussion at the Oklahoma History Center in Oklahoma City. This film screening and discussion is intended for those 18 and up.
