The Esmont Oral History project grew out of VCDH's commitment to create and distribute a rich digital history archive for African American history. The project examines the era of segregation in one community, Esmont, and explores African American politics, families, schools, businesses, churches, and other institutions to gain perspective on African American history and the culture of the segregated South. |
