Location: Community Room at Meadowlark
Following the end of legal Reconstruction (1865-1877) in the United States, the racial climate of the Deep South inspired many African-American families to look for a new home in other states, including Kansas. These pioneers, known as Exodusters, traveled to Kansas in May of 1879, and settled in cities such as Leavenworth, Lawrence, Tonganoxie, Ottawa, and Manhattan. Join us in the Community Room on Tuesday, Feb. 4, at 6:30 p.m. to learn how this migration helped form the historic Yuma Street district here in Manhattan and influenced settlement throughout the county.
