Black Friday Freedom Walk in Galveston, Tx will retrace the steps of Union Soldiers as they moved through the city of Galveston in 1865.
Major General Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston with thousands of Union soldiers in June of 1865. Many of them were United States Colored Troops. The Black Friday Freedom Walk will not be the exact route the soldiers walked in 1865, but we will retrace the steps that some of them may have taken as they moved through the city of Galveston spreading the message of freedom. Join me for this historical journey as we walk and discuss some of the historic sites related to the Juneteenth story.
