TIL of the “Green Book” which helped Black Americans know which restaurants, hotels and gas stations would serve them and/or do them no harm between the 1930s-1960s

What a find.
The fact the publication of such guide ceased just in 1964 is incredible, I didn’t realize that basically racism was “legalized” i. The U. S until such a recent time. 😞
Great movie also!
It makes sense, but it’s just revolting that such a book was ever needed.
First invade America, kill all natives and then create guide where they will be unharmed.🙂
