I had a wonderful experience at the Carter G. Woodson home! Although there isn't much in the home, the tour guide was incredibly kind and informative. I learned so much and had a great conversation with the tour guide - we even stood around for awhile after the tour talking. I left feeling energized by the thought-provoking conversations and history lesson I had.nnThe home is in a nice, cute neighborhood. There is a small bookstore inside, as well as a waiting area with chairs and restrooms. You must be on a tour to view the home, so check the website before you go because they have limited hours.
My daughter and I arrived just in time for the 11am tour. Our guide, Lashawn was fantastic. He was knowledgeable and patient and answered all of our questions. He even provided recommendations for other historic sites in the area. I highly recommend visiting.
This is the actual birthplace of Black history month. I remember over 50 years ago in elementary school that the text books we used had virtually no information on the accomplishments of African Americans in American history. This is why Carter Woodson started his publication in this house. Bethune's house is nearby.
Very informative tour detailing the contributions of THE father of black history.
It may be nice but only go during the tour hours... They won't open the door for a self guided tour in between. Not sure if that's standard practice but I wasn't able to get in at noon.
