VIETNAM: THE EXPERIENCES OF BLACK ST. LOUISANS
Join us for an engaging evening supporting the African American History Initiative and highlighting the Vietnam: At War and At Home exhibit at Soldiers Memorial. We will dive into the experiences of Black St. Louisans from the 1950s to the 1970s to today, looking specifically at the varied impacts of the Vietnam War on Black St. Louisans while showing respect for their military service and paying respect to our veterans. Through oral histories, images, newspaper accounts, and artifacts, we will gain a better understanding of and respect for the experiences of Black St. Louisans during this time.

Vietnam is sponsored by Bank of America, Stephen and Camilla Brauer, Edward Jones, Ameren, and General Dynamics Information Technology. African American History Initiative (AAHI) programming is presented by Wells Fargo. Help keep programs like these free by donating to AAHI!
