THE GREEN BOOK: GUIDE TO FREEDOM
"The essential travel guide for a segregated America"
Directed by Yoruba Richen
In 1936, Victor H. Green (1892-1960) published The Negro Motorist Green Book, a book that was both a travel guide and a survival manual, to help African-Americans navigate safe those regions of the United States where segregation and Jim Crow laws were disgracefully applied.
