Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. A New York Times Notable Book, Overground Railroad explores the historical role and residual impact of the Green Book, the Bible of Black Travel Published from 1936 to 1967, during the Jim Crow years and into the civil rights movement, when travel for black America was difficult and dangero…us, the Green Book was an ingenious solution to a horrific problem. It listed hotels, restaurants, gas stations, stores, nightclubs, and other businesses across the United States that were safe for black people to patronize. Overground Railroad celebrates the stories behindand contained withinVictor Greens guide, tracing its history and revealing the contemporary events that helped shape how black people endured and triumphed despite incredible obstacles. Candacy Taylor drove through the neighborhoods where Green Book sites once thrived. Her work documents the scars that redlining, urban renewal, gentrification, and mass incarceration have left on these communities. Although less than 5 percent of Green Book businesses are still operating, these sites of sanctuary symbolize black ingenuity, resourcefulness, strength, entrepreneurship, and resilience. Overground Railroad tells the untold story of black travel, offering readers a rich opportunity to reexamine Americas story of segregation, black migration, and the rise of the black leisure class. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condizione: New. A New York Times Notable Book, Overground Railroad is a compelling and illuminating exploration of the historical role and residual impact of the Green Book, a travel guide for Black motorists used for decades when traveling through segregated America."Essential" (Library Journal; starred review) I"Re…calls Isabel Wilkerson's The Warmth of Other Suns" ( Los Angeles Times) I "Eye-opening, deeply moving." (Bookpage; starred review)It took courage to be listed in the Green Book, and Overground Railroad celebrates the stories of those who put their names in the book and stood up against segregation. It shows the history of the Green Book, how we arrived at our present historical moment, and how far we still have to go when it comes to race relations and systemic racism in America.Published from 1936 to 1966, the Green Book was hailed as the "Black travel guide to America." At that time, it was both dangerous and difficult for African Americans to travel, because Black travelers couldn't eat, sleep, or buy gas at most white-owned businesses. The Green Book listed hotels, restaurants, gas stations, and other businesses that were safe for Black travelers. It was a resourceful and innovative solution to a horrific problem.Candacy Taylor writes in her introduction, "The Green Book was published during a time when car travel symbolized freedom in America, but since racial segregation was in full force throughout the country, the open road wasn't open to all. When Black motorists picked up a copy of the Green Book, they were greeted by the words 'Just What You Have Been Looking For!! NOW WE CAN TRAVEL WITHOUT EMBARRASSMENT.'"Chapters include:Driving While BlackThe Business of the Green BookVacationMusic VenuesThe Roots of Route 66Women and the Green Bookand much moreIncludes color and black-and-white period illustrations.
