REDLINING HERITAGE TRAIL TOUR

Take a walk with us to hear the stories of home, and to celebrate BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) communities that are currently and were historically marginalized in Seattle.

ABOUT THE TOUR

Select Saturdays, May - June
11:30 AM - 1 PM
Begins at Wing Luke Museum
Approximately 1 mile of walking distance

Produced in partnership with the National Park Service and Northwest African American Museum, learn about housing exclusion and how Seattle communities came together to make change as we walk through the Chinatown-International District and Central District.

Though many believe Seattle is a liberal city, the history of redlining and the road toward open housing has been a long struggle. The history of redlining and the Civil Rights movement in Seattle is necessary as we continue to explore themes of gentrification and displacement as time goes on. Take a walk with us to hear the stories of home, and to celebrate BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) communities that are currently and were historically marginalized in Seattle.
