Green Book Walking Tour

You are invited to the Green Book Walking Tour organized by All That Philly Jazz. Published by Victor H. Green, The Negro Motorist Green Book, better known as the Green Book, was a listing of safe spaces where African Americans could escape the indignities of Jim Crow laws in the South and racial segregation in the North. Over the course of 30 years, dozens of Philadelphia businesses were listed in the Green Book. The businesses were clustered in South Philadelphia, then the heart of the African American community.

All That Philly Jazz Director Faye Anderson will lead a walking tour of Green Book sites in Center City and South Philly. The walk starts at the Bellevue Hotel and ends at the repurposed Attucks Hotel (distance: 0.7 miles).

Tickets are $25 per person. For event details and ticket information, please visit Green Book Walking Tour.
