ABOUT US
Josette Green, Founder and Historian of the St. Petersburg (FL) Black History Bike Tour.
The St. Petersburg Black History Bike Tour is an immersive experience attendees have described as “eye-opening” and “life-changing.” Led by Historian Josette Green, it takes participants to the locations where history began for St. Pete’s African American residents. The history reveals an understanding of the systemic racism in our city today and provides action items for creating positive change going forward. The donation-based public tour is available on limited dates September to May.
