Conversations in Indiana’s African American History with Freetown Village

Overview
"Conversations in Indiana’s African American History” is a monthly gathering of voices—historians, researchers, and educators—who deepen our understanding of the African American experience in Indiana, past and present.
Our presenter will be Eunice Trotter, Director of Indiana Landmark’s Black Heritage Preservation Program.
From 1919 through the 1940s, Indianapolis hosted two divisions of Marcus Garvey’s United Negro Improvement Association, part of the largest mass self‑determination movement of African Americans in history. Featuring some of the city’s most influential leaders, the organization thrived before ultimately fading, leaving behind a powerful legacy and lessons from its demise.
