Landscapes Of Exclusion

Beginning in the 1930s, the state park movement sought to expand public access to scenic places. But under severe Jim Crow restrictions in the South, entrance to the new facilities was routinely and officially denied to African Americans, and pressure to create “separate but equal” facilities mounted. Landscapes of Exclusion presents the first-ever study of segregation in southern state parks, underscoring the profound disparity that persisted for decades in the Jim Crow South.
