As we mark 50 years of tourism in Monroe-West Monroe, this moment offers more than a milestone - it offers a chance to recognize the people who have shaped the experience along the way.

We ❤️ this!

This story stays with you. Robert Louis Brandon Edwards, a Cleveland-based historian, artist, and Ph.D. student in preservation at Columbia University, is restoring a 1947 Greyhound bus as a way to tell the story of the Great Migration. Edwards plans to turn the bus into a mobile museum called the National Museum of the Great Migration.

For millions of Black Americans, buses like this weren’t just transportation. They were a pathway to possibility, carrying people in search of safety, opportunity, and the American dream.

What I appreciate about this work is how it expands our understanding of preservation. It’s not always about buildings. Sometimes it’s about the spaces in between the journeys, the movement, the lived experiences that shaped our history.

Preserving Black history means telling the full story. Thank you Robert Louis Brandon Edwards. I can't wait to see your work in person.

Thank you Ouachita Green for sponsoring our event and a huge thank you goes out to Rev. T. J. Stevenson, aka the “Mayor” of Adams Street, for her support.

Last Friday, I made a special effort to get to Timez Kitchen and Kocktail before the clock struck 3:00pm for the catch of the day, but it was sold out.
