Huntsville Black History (Urban) Hike Part 2

Like many cities, there’s a plethora of history hidden in plane sight. Join us for part 2 of our Urban Hike series as Mr. William Hampton uncovers what was once Huntsville’s Black Wall Street,  and a vibrant Black Business District. I want the Urban Hike to travel south on Church Street to Gallatin to what was once known as The Grove.

William Hampton is the founder of Huntsville Revisited ,  a group dedicated to preserving and sharing the rich, diverse history of Huntsville-Madison County, Alabama.
