Description: "A perfect book for young readers to discover lesser-known places that have shaped Black history in the United States. Have you ever heard of Congo Square, a place in New Orleans, Louisiana, where enslaved people would gather to sing and dance? Or Allensworth, the first all-Black town in California? Many important places such as these may not be well known, yet they have made remarkable contributions to our country's history. This book shines a spotlight on ten such 'hidden landmarks.' They include pioneering secret communities, inclusive vacation sports for African American families, groundbreaking musical sites, and more! Open this book to discover the powerful stories behind these hidden landmarks!"--
