Black Voices of Cape May: A Feeling of Community

A vital part of Cape May, New Jersey's history was shaped by the vibrant voices and events of the Black community. Most think of the town only as a picturesque remainder of the prosperous white Victorian culture. Black Voices of Cape May - A Feeling of Community is a unique collection of interviews and stored away family photographs that gives us a window on African American experiences in Cape May.

Follow the families throughout the 20th century as they worked, played, and prayed. Learn how this community was built, faced segregation and discrimination, and was ultimately lost due to Cape May's gentrification.

Fascinating book. I have been vacationing in Cape May for nearly 30 years and only knew a tiny but of this history.
