Black Burials in Philadelphia: A Walking Tour (Jubilee Marshall, APH 2022)
Before Jubilee Marshall was an Archives and Public History Masters student, she created a self-guided walking tour about Black burial grounds in Philadelphia. This project was Marshall’s undergraduate thesis at Villanova University. You can explore this walking tour from anywhere with audio recordings for each stop along the tour. Marshall received financial awards from Villanova University’s Center for Research and Fellowship and New York University’s Center for Digital Humanities for this project.
