Via Zoom.

Despite humble beginnings in post-Civil War Virginia, Maggie L. Walker achieved national recognition as a business woman and community leader. She devoted her life to civil rights, economic empowerment, and educational opportunities for African-Americans and women in the Jim Crow South, serving as a newspaper editor, a community leader, and the first African American woman in the United States to found a bank.

Join us for this film viewing and virtual tour of Walker’s home in Richmond, Virginia, which has been preserved as a National Historic Site by the National Parks Service.
