Black History Month Tours
*The event has already taken place on this date: Mon, 02/23/2026
In honor of Black History Month, we are offering free tours highlighting Oakland’s African American residents. We Shall Overcome: African American Stories from Civil War to Civil Rights. “We Shall Overcome” became the anthem of the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s, but the origin of the song dates back to antebellum days and a spiritual sung by enslaved people, “No More Auction Block for Me.” This tour explores the lives and accomplishments of outstanding and ordinary African Americans who fought to overcome the effects of slavery and discrimination to help shape the history of Atlanta.
