Black Pioneers of Los Angeles County, 1850-1900: Biddy Mason and the African-American Community

Описание к видео Black Pioneers of Los Angeles County, 1850-1900: Biddy Mason and the African-American Community

While the remarkable Biddy Mason is the best remembered member of the African-Americans who lived in 19th century Los Angeles, she was part of a community of hundreds of Black residents, many of whose contributions have been erased.

Join Biddy Mason Foundation Executive Director Jackie Broxton and the Homestead Museum's Director Paul R. Spitzzeri as they share the stories of this early and vital African-American community through the use of census records, and explore the important and fascinating events of the 1856 trial of Mason, as she sought her freedom from a slave owner while living in the Angel City.
