In this presentation, THS Communications Manager and Tacoma music historian Kim Davenport shares stories of black musicians from Tacoma's past who left an important legacy in our city. Some made Tacoma home while others were merely guests for a time, but all added to the artistic vitality of our community while confronting the realities of discrimination.
Presented in partnership between the Tacoma Public Library and Tacoma Historical Society, with support from Tacoma Creates.
