Have you ever considered how history has helped shape the present narrative when it comes to travel? 

Today I am joined by award-winning author, photographer, and cultural documentarian, Candacy Taylor, to talk about how a simple guidebook transformed travel for Black Americans in the Jim Crow segregation era.

Candacy shares her experience traveling to different Green Book sites across the United States to write her book Overground Railroad: The Green Book and the Roots of Black Travel in America. She also opens up about how her experiences with travel as a young adult and her background as an artist shaped her present-day journey as a storyteller and cultural documentarian.

If you are curious about how you can impact change in your own circle, get a glimpse into the difficulties Black families have faced when traveling, and see a side of activism and entrepreneurship not typically discussed, then you do not want to miss this episode. 

What type of legacy do you want to leave? I'd love to hear about it and hope you will share by sending me an audio message.
