The Significance of the Afro-Frontier: Blackdom, New Mexico (1900-1930)

Monday, April 7th, 2025

5:00 PM - 6:00 PM

UNM-Taos Klauer Campus

Community welcome at this free event! Join YOUR UNM-Taos Library for a presentation by Dr. Timothy E. Nelson on Blackdom, a 20th-century African American settlement in New Mexico, along with a fruitful discussion on race relations in New Mexico and more. Providing the most in-depth research on Blackdom to date, Dr. Timothy E. Nelson reframes the history, focusing on the economic and social ambitions of Afro-Frontierists (Black pioneers).
