SUMMARY:Black\, White\, and Yellow Taxis: Morris County and the Green Book
DESCRIPTION:Morris County Historical Society and Morris County Heritage Commission are pleased to present a Revolutionary Lecture Series to celebrate the rich and vast history that makes Morris County so special. Join us for a series of 12 lectures that will cover topics from our local role in the American Revolution to the early engineering marvels that forever changed the area to the local figures that made national history. \nFor the second lecture in our series\, join local author and historian Janet W. Foster to learn the history behind her new book\, Black\, White\, and Yellow Taxis: Morris County and The Green Book. The first edition of the “Negro Motorist Green Book” came out in 1936\, and was published annually for 30 years. New Jersey had some 581 individual businesses listed in 31 different towns\, including and Madison and Morristown. Foster\, in a two-year project with a team of scholars from around the state\, identified local sites listed in the Green Book. Through her research into those businesses\, emerges a fascinating view of African-American communities throughout the state in the mid-20th century.
