GOLD RUSH, BLACKS IN
The "Gold Rush" was a wild time in California. Join us as we follow adventurers and others who sought a better life in the gold fields of the West. You'll learn that "getting there" was sometimes as difficult as finding gold, no matter which route you choose - the dangerous overland route or the hazardous sea route around Cape Horn or through the Panama Canal. Read about black miners who struck gold and black business men and women who profited from the boom. Discover how many used their new wealth to push the civil rights movement and for education reform. Be a witness to the profitable businesses they started, as well as to the racism some encountered. Find out, too, how gold was mined and why it was so highly valued. See you then!
