Footprints: Traces of Black History in Richmond, Kentucky

Footprints are a fascinating aspect of human history, as they provide connections to the past and help trace the movements of our ancestors. When we walk in the same places where our ancestors once walked, we are literally following in their footsteps and experiencing a small piece of their lives. Buildings have been demolished, memories have dimmed, elders are now deceased … only traces of Richmond’s rich Black heritage remain.
